The world leads through deception to ways
Dark and hopeless, promising false fame and height
And many are deceived and lose sight
Of that which they've learned since their youth of Grace
And hope, of repentance, of everyday's
Choices that can allow one to cast as candle-light
On a hill an example leading to a path of right,
Of honesty, love, kindness; not self praise
Seeking for gain by finding others to use,
But by living each day through humble faith.
In this world I will not lose
My way or hope. With each breath
I will carefully choose
To live my life so I may not fear death.
