Tom Wright Poet Lyric

Fight the Good Fight

Fight The Good Fight
By: Miracle Man

We politicize everything
That might help make our point.
But if circumstances change
We get our nose out of joint.

It behooves each of us
To always give life our best.
Because our time on earth
Is just a judgment day test. 

We all know that cream
Always rises to the top.
That’s where we should be
On the day life will stop.

If we don’t pay attention
To the things that matter.
We’ll rest in the field
Among the tares we helped scatter.

As a vapor, our clock time*
Will quickly be gone.
Only then to be judged
By the seeds we’ve sown.


* James 4:14 
says, “Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away.”
