How Wonderful ...

Ever since humans sought the supernatural, confusion seemed bizarre and hysterical; within hills and mountains they erected their temples, sang their praises to appease their gods, who were thought to be angry at times... what they were trying to accomplish was to feel the presence of a spirit which granted their wishes! How wonderful is the faith of true believers, and they don't build cathedrals as far as the unreachable sky; the God they're searching for..is as close as the depth of their faithful heart! How loud are their voices,at sunrise, that ascend like seagulls...to transform themselves into a celestial chorus with a crescendo... that draws them closer to a sky of indigo! In the streets of this Babylonian craze, religion is without atonement, but there's plenty of defiled grace to be consumed as the exquisitive food of a privileged banquet... where a doubter is rediculed by laughs and condemned; human,human race where does God live?... And does He approve of your false zest? How wonderful is the faith of true believers, clinging to that sublime hope, rising from light, to reach Heaven without having to go through Hell; how humble is the aspiration of the true faithful... not relying on astrology,avoiding all kinds of deceit! Be watchful and shun pretentiousness... worship Him truthfully and assert your claim; nobody but you can decide what's right!
