Light In the Soul
My heart might be filled with wreckage and woe.
Yet I'll travel on for this much I know-
I cannot give in to still desperation.
I'll look deep within and find my foundation.
A wealth of God-given traits are mine.
And I'm loved alot so I'm feeling fine.
Like my mama before me,I'll lift myself up.
Invite all to drink deep from my loving cup.
Forget about self and just give unto others.
Treat them like they're all my sisters and brothers.
Kindness that's shared comes back hundred-fold.
My soul will gleam like it's rimmed in gold.
So let my candle within glow bright.
I hope my warmth will light someone's night.
