Believer

Believer

I, the great believer

             I had faith

             I had hope

I look at the wonders that man has built

             Amazed at what I saw

I looked towards them for salvation

             They know the secrets of greatness

The hope I had was unbelievable

             The faith indescribable, indestructible

What perfect objects man designs

             When he himself is imperfect

The wonderful words men have written down

             They guide our lives, control our destiny

What philosophies can man ascribe

             When he himself has set no rules

Set no boundaries on his ever wandering mind

His ever-changing mood

I the great believing fool

             I was the one who had faith

             I was the one who had hope
