WE STAND

We stand at a crossroad,
look right, look left, look up
don't just stand there, speak up
do turn your eyes to God.

Of right, and left, and up,
Detour always beckons
Light is life we reckon
we don't believe in luck.

Detour always beckons,
Of choice we must beware
Lift up your voice in prayers,
Mercy equals pardon.
