You created the sunlight and the moon You created story lines that have themes that can't be forgotten You created ideas so musicians could get inspired You created a way to make sense of the chaos in the world You keep us in line and aware of our actions You create a heart to feel You brought us a rich history and diversity You created the flawless system You gave us objectivity and truth You told us what to fight for and hold on to You told us what we couldn't control and to let it go You taught us the Proverbs, the Gospels You told us to press on and hold onto You You told us to have Faith and believe You told us it is better to give than to receive You told us to think of others first You taught us manners, you taught us how to be respectful You taught us to give generously You taught us to live a meaningful life You told us never to lose hope and to persist You taught us dedication and perseverance You taught us to listen and be patient You taught us to stand up for you and to leave the self behind
