Trespassers Not Allowed

Trespassers not allowed

I hold on to God 

cos only him can 
protect my dignity
in a world of calamities

I seek his cleansing
cos am dirty like a pig
on my own making

I hold on to God 

for his mercies 
feeds my grace 
to be spiritual
in an atmosphere of confusion

I hold no grudge
cos my heart 
is healthy but not holy 

yet I remain humble
in the sight of God 
till the last call of my days 

water my garden
oh God 
and let my seed grow 

protect my soul 
from the sons of 
evil men 
In their colours 
and shapes

let the rivers of life 
never carry me to 
their doors of  calamities

I know am not alone 
I hold on to God so 
upon my dignity
trespassers not allowed
