Faith Flame Fly Afresh

On duty, don’t fall asleep
Lest your future should weep
As faith fervor you fail to keep

Indulging concerns of flesh in your crèche
But faith fervor refresh
For faith flame to fly afresh

Now, today and tomorrow as pride you swallow
Or else fantasy and fancy you’ll follow
To drive your faith callow, hollow and sallow

Swimming in a sea of little depth
Gasping for breath
Floating and gloating over stealth in hazy health and wanton wealth

But a turn around you should achieve
If commands you don’t deceive
When on time fortitude you receive

Doing good
Feeding on morsels of thought food
As magnitude of your spiritual duty understood

To bless and grace your attitude
In tune with bliss beatitude
That propels you to the highest deserved latitude.
