Child of God


Hello, how are you?
 Is the old, worn out question.
Just fine. The reply 
Without any expression.
Behind every face 
And every blank stare
Is a child of God, 
A spirit that cares.
A soul that is crying
 Out from inside
A nobler spirit 
Trying to find
Their sense of direction 
That may be suppressed
The compass, the pathway 
On which to progress.
The world that is pulling 
From every which way
Confusing the spirit
 And leading astray.
Some choose to listen and, yes,
 They do fall.
Others will fight and
 Continue to call
On their Father in Heaven, 
He's always there,
He quietly listens 
To each earnest prayer.
And when we are ready 
To humbly follow
He sends His reply 
Unlike others, not hollow.
He enlightens our mind 
With the spirit's sweet tone.
It's His work and His glory 
To bring His children back home.
