CROWN OF GLORY



The devil tries to steal my crown 
He plucked the stars away from the sky 
For tomorrow not to be made 
But in the morning the sun stood

The passage of life the enemy altered 
With strife, famine and war 
The devil cut the line to castigated the world 
But no one dare stop God's plan 

Under the shadows of the most high 
I am fermented to an eternal Will 
Life tried to break my heart and spirit 
But I am a vessel with a soul tamed 

Everyday the enemy lay an ambush
Dug a pit preying I will fall 
In a world flooded with wickedness and greed
Harms never comes to stay my way 

God's words, angels is abreast 
Everyday I pray hard
Faith in my heart I heed
In heaven await a crown of glory

PORTRAIT OF AGONY


In the face of agony
Care is unseen but sin
Last night in the road through melancholy
I saw a mother make rain, the waters of her eyes
In circles of waves, hate replicated 

Drifting love afar, next to obscurity
Lust and selfishness paved
The world ignores a child's innocence
Blood seizes to be bond

A rift in between
Like a gap tooth
Unity is just a fallacy
Hearts are eaten in lies and deceit

Poisoned to war with canal promises
Where lies the conscience?
Yet each day we blow the trumpet of change
How can man live in gain if his heart is condemned?

It's time we start asking the right questions
If the world is meant to be destroyed and deserted
Why did God create the universe?

It cost nothing to do what's right
All it takes is but a little sacrifice
Love one another, to a brother, lend a hand
To wade off agony from the earth surface
