Robert Andrew Lyle Poet Rhyme

I Believe

I believe in life eternal
Free from all my earthly craves
My soul flying free to heaven
When my body is in its  grave

Here on earth the soul is tested
Into the fire the pain to feel
As we lose our life’s companions
And death our brothers it does steal

Yet our souls they must be steadfast
Growing with each blow that lands
Learning why we first must suffer
Before we walk on Heavens sands

Make not gods from lust and money
Worship not the golden chain
Forget what the mirror tells you
Then you’ll have a lot to gain

Be at peace with all around you
Love the stranger as your own
Wake each day to make a difference 
In the world that we call home
