Don'T Murmur
When your night seems longer than others
The cloud looks thicker than ever
The storm sounds stronger than others
When your way turns narrower than ever
The tides tends tedious than others
Remember He who calms the storm
Wait don't murmur
When the sun and the moon
Are hidden from your sight
And only the stars raise your hope
For a new dawn
Wait don't murmur
When the road tends rougher than ever
And thorns adorn your path
Leaving you with so many scars
When your mates are ridding in so many cars
Remember the head that was crowned with thorns
Wait don't murmur
When darkness covers your path
And uncertainty describes
the prospect of your steps
As you trudge along the path of life
You dash your feet against unseen stones of life
Wait don't murmur
When wounds from falling adorn your legs
Remember He was wounded for your sins
Fears from cares all around you
From the silence of the mid night
Going gets tougher, stopping becomes criminal
Even at a saver terminal
Going seems into despair
Wait don't murmur
When the past keep pulling
The present keep pushing
And in your heart you asked
What holds the future?
Where lies the fortune?
When every ringing tone sounds faulty
You feel more haughty
Sure i know you are not naugty
But almost choked with the pressure of the trio
Remember the one that holds and shapes the future
Wait don't murmur
Yet press forward
Into the future unseen but real
When you are there
It shall be unfolded
Seen and real
Because the same future
Is not as far-away
As you thought or were told
But the presets and the re-sets
In the present
Just remember who was and is
And who is to come
Wait don't murmur
Murmur is the mother of
murder
