Hold Fast

The world's a stage, the players make history.
What is the truth and what is false mystery.

Distressing evil darts shooting in all directions..
Hateful filled words laced with vengeful actions..

Adversity approaches playing its insidious hand..
A tedious decision, whether to fold or take a stand..

Corruption  intensifies with the passing of each day..
Tomorrow isn't promised and neither is today..

To walk by faith, even in the unseen..
A hearts endeavor, holding tightly to the dream..
