As I sit down to open my book
I heave a great sigh telling,
'Here we go again! ', to myself
With a very perplexed and absurd look!
...
When life seems to be uphill,
And when hope becomes hopeless.
When everything just crashes and worries start to drill,
And there begins a test!
...
O soul, don't tire on this fading earth,
Press on with help from Above.
Don't give into the flesh and make the Spirit inert,
Don't cut the thread of love.
...
Listen to the silence
And a voice emerges.
Give heed to the Spirit,
Ignoring the noises.
...
I thank the One above;
For this rare opportunity,
To teach me about the love
And mercies that are bestowed on me.
...
