SIMPLY HUMAN

What has happened to humanity on this desolate earth

The ground is shaking with discontentment, as if its giving birth

Every where you turn, hardships beating down the door

This one talking about that one, who can you trust anymore??

Sure as I’m standing here, if words like that are spoken in front me

I can only imagine what is said when I walk away. Let’s just be

Be simply human, not putting others down to promote ourselves

Lend a hand, kind word, nice gesture, here you’ll find better health

It’s hard when your surrounded by those who are not like minded

Be kind to thine own self of this I am reminded

When other’s can’t help themselves, shield yourself don’t be a fool

Don’t argue with drunkards, Proverbs golden rule

A book full of so much wisdom, treasures hidden deep within

Am outline for humanity, when dark clouds are rolling in

I’m told my expectations are too high, when I expect to be treated as I treat others

Shaking my head is all I can do, turn the cheek, then another

God help me not to change my kind heart, in spite of whom surrounds

Help me to be simply human, when my feet touch the ground

Give me ears to hear you, when there is so much noise

Help me to have vision, standing tall, maintaining my poise

Being a reflection of your image, for I’m yours and your are mine

Living a life that is blameless, grants me comfort and peace of mind

Praying for my enemies, blessing them all my days

Is easy to love those who love me, for these are your ways

Help me not to judge them, for you see their hearts

Your the beginning and the end, where it stops and where it starts

In the end, I want to be simply human, a reflection of your grace

That when others look upon me, that they will see your face

This defines success to me, this is what makes me complete

In this I find destiny, purpose and value, give me the right words to speak
