Life's Lullaby
Life’s lullaby at times of tensions tends to evaporate
As on Earth morbid mumblings multiply
To flicker our faith and to dribble us desperate
As we wonder if in the supernatural we qualify
For any worth that upon which we can count
Although amen answers our curiosity can’t satisfy
When drivel doubt drives us to discount
Peeks of pie and sigh in the sky
As deep drama drains stamina when we recount
Audacious occasions we’ve drunk the Devil’s lie
Waving us to wean from faith and sin
Despite elf efforts to stave off a stealth cry
As for the umpteenth time we recall how great God has been
To us in grand glory and guarantee we’ve seen.
