Ivory Tower

Do not depend on synthetic power, it will not stand.
Only God's will endure, across our land.
Examine, and convert your humanity.
Trust in God, and embrace Christianity.

Don't waste your days, on what might have been.
Keep your eye, on man's one true gem.
Embrace his word, extract his power.
Recognize his sacrifice, and his last final hour.

Look in your heart, and think of what you see.
We are not so different, you and me.
Be mindful, of how you spend your human hour.
It will one day fall, man's Ivory Tower.
