The Book of Life:

As if the word of life is the unknown,

You give me the antidote to glory,

I take baby steps until I’m all grown,

binded by leather, protecting your story,

when life gets too hard I tend to stumble,

memorizing scriptures ‘til my minds whirled,

The King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Our Father,

I come to you when I am most humble,

But You are my guidance in this cruel world.

I pray to you and hope I don’t bother.

A story of a baby who saves mankind,

Genesis, Exodous, Leveticus,

A gifted man who healed the sick and blind,

Adam and Eve to Saul in Damascus,

Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Psalms

A courageous woman, a book of songs,

I sing a tiny hymn and clasp my hands,

A man who gained the world but all the wrongs,

You protect my soul or it will impend.
