Between God and Man
Seers and sages have come and gone
You are to be compared to none
You are not bounded by time and space
You are not affected by chance
You’ve stayed for eons of years
Sleep and slumber affects not your eyes
Who are we to tell your age?
Individuals only pray you turn to their page
To us, day and night passes
To you they are endless
You make all the decisions
For all the nations
Ours is only to choose
For we have no time to lose.
When it’s time to gather in your presence,
To savour ourselves in your glorious essence
We are always found wanting
And each time we come along panting
For your ways are holy
We are imperfect, empty and unholy
Like a drop of water in the ocean
That cannot stir or cause commotion.
There's only one conclusion:
Our lives is in your hand;
Without you, men are but mere illusion,
Blind and being led by the hand.
