~ The King in Me ~

In my soul where He resides

In my soul is where He hides

Undetected by human eyes

Unprotected from human cries

 

He hears the world full of pain

And He tells me how to stay sane

Telling me to take my time

No need for a life of crime

 

Don’t let money mislead you

Then people will mistreat you

And act as if you don’t belong

So just let knowledge make you strong

 

No need for riches, you will gain wealth

Without sacrificing your mental health

When all is well with your soul

I will help you meet your goal

 

For this, I thank Him every day

Now that He has shown the True way

I find I’m living life to learn

Never knowing where life will turn

 

With Him there only is progressing

Where He leads, I am left guessing

And so you see, that’s just the thing

It’s up to Him, because He is King

Notes

People often ask me why I am a Christian. Because I am very political and progressive in my politics, I run into a lot of atheists.

This piece basically sums up why I am a Christian.
