Faith

Whispers in the wind

And conversations in the creek

I overhear as I walk along.

They speak of the Lord above,

Who tells them the time is near

To escort me to the heavenly gates.

But the storm clouds looming in my mind

Growl there's no such thing

And threaten my future with loud crashes...

I ignore the fear inside me,

Despite the lightning and rain falling,

And I remain, steady as stone

For the man who controls my deeds

And strengthens my will when I despair

Is not a man, but God,

And He has told me,

"Have faith."
