I Believe
As search we must while on this earth
For love and truth, we’ll bathe in hurt
The answers lie within ourselves
If time we take therein to delve
For under every rock you’ll find me
Let not the chains of science bind thee
And if you take the time to look
He’s there in every written book
For in this life we live our Hell
I’ve seen my peers in torture dwell
The nature of my fellow man
Is to strive to do the best he can
No I’m not needing any proof
No miracles nor jaded truth
After all I’ve read and all I’ve seen
The truth I feel remains unseen
And if tomorrow’ll be my end
To Gods request and will I’ll bend
I’ll go with grace and dignity
I know He’s waiting there for me
So search not for what can’t be seen
As man demands a truth to glean
Look instead inside your heart
In all you’ve known, right from the start
Just know that love is in your grasp
As death expels it’s final gasp
That life is here and for the living
That humankind shall be forgiven
All I’ve come to realise
Is there within my childrens eyes
No need for Bibles nor Dead Sea Scrolls
The love of love’s within the soul
We’ll walk with loved ones as before
In playful dreams, friends by the score
While watched with love from all around
Blessed by His light on Hallowed Ground
So bless us Lord our souls to keep
As death it lays us down to sleep
A purer soul shall surely find
That Heavens Gates admit the blind
