THE CHURCH
|
What is this building, this church
on the corner, |
|
|
I saw as a child, where I was a
foreigner. |
|
|
The people inside, dressed all in
their best, |
|
|
greeted me there, I was but a
guest. |
|
|
|
|
|
My parents went there,
yes, I had to go, |
|
|
to go through the
motions, I couldn’t say no. |
|
|
Why was I forced, to
go to a place, |
|
|
praying to something,
unseen to my face? |
|
|
|
|
|
They’d go through the
service, with reverence of life, |
|
|
but when it was over,
Pop’s tongue spoke with strife. |
|
|
I marveled how a man,
could act a "sweet" part, |
|
|
then speak of mankind,
with things that were tart. |
|
|
|
|
|
Is man doubled minded,
to heal or bring pain, |
|
|
not seeing his tongue,
brings thunder or rain. |
|
|
All of these things,
sent a confused sound, |
|
|
to me that was
groping, in darkness so profound? |
|
|
|
|
|
The church was
decided, because of belief, |
|
|
believing
each other, not knowing relief. |
|
|
I sought
to find TRUTH, to understand GRACE, |
|
|
so my
speech like rags, will come forth like lace. |
|
|
|
|
|
The
healing "inside", did not come from "brick", |
|
|
it came
from the BOOK, so I wouldn’t stay sick. |
|
|
Let’s
awaken to the BOOK, to be of one mind, |
|
|
to a LOVE
that brings life, just seek and you’ll find. |
|
|
|
|
|
The
feeding in church, was more for the soul, |
|
|
‘cause We
feed our spirits, so they can be WHOLE. |
|
|
All of
these buildings, as grand as some seem, |
|
|
can’t FREE
up our lives, from this life, a DREAM. |
