I've not much faith in this world today.
It seems we're either right or living in hell.
Controverial dreams now trace the crucifix
as we march onward through cemetery cathedrals.

"Do you believe in God?" One child asks,
his heart so open to trust, sympathetic to grief.
"Can't you see child, the pain in this world?"
A calloused adult scorns, "Where's God to bring relief?"

"Leave it in my hands." God would say
to the creatures He created below.
"That's what's mysterious... your beliefs,
you can't just believe until you are shown."

My sins have all lined up within my heart
awaiting for forgiveness to dispose of them.
I've announced I believe in the great beyond.
Some people call that place Heaven.

I've learned not to groan in disappointment.
Everything happens for cause in this lifetime.
I once was desperate to seek out the answers
now I know, the answers have always been mine.

When eternity comes, I'll welcome it with open arms
Like soldiers in Hastings and the child in Vietnam.
I will soar and meet my Creator past Draco's wings
and there I shall sing with the angels in a world so calm.
