I will not ring the bell!

It's not to late,
I will not ring the bell!
God, I give you my all,
I will not ring the bell!
I have not given into temptation,
I will not ring the bell!
Teaching has fallen on deaf ears,
I will not ring the bell!
My God has not forsaken me,
I will not ring the bell!
The Lord has given me strength,
I will not ring the bell!
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will not ring the bell!
Though the cords of death entangle me,
I will not ring the bell!
Though the anguish of the grave came upon me,
I will not ring the bell!
In the time to die and to weep,
I will not ring the bell!
When I feel alone, lost and confused,
I will not ring the bell!
I will not ring the bell!
I WILL NOT RING THE BELL!!!!!!

As I gaze across a nameless valley,
I wonder at what might lay beyond,
I contemplate the distant horizon,
And study upon a futuristic hope.
As I gaze from a nameless mountains peak,
I admire the plains grandeur,
I worry about what lies at the foot,
And wonder at my own strange existence.
As I stand in the middle of a nameless plain,
I wonder at the vastness of the sky,
I gaze at the hazy distance,
and wonder how long it will take me to get there.
As I stand upon a nameless shore,
I am enthralled by the mightiness of the sea,
I stand in awe of the mightiness of the future,
And consider the far away wave.
As i sail across a nameless sea,
I gaze at a distant glimpse of land,
I think of what might lie before,
And only long to go faster.
So finally I lay in a nameless town,
All my adventures lay behind,
And I realize I'm on my deathbed,
And i remember the Sea and the Valley,
And I realize I forgot the enjoy the genius around me,
I realize I forgot to live.
