"The Eyes of Faith"

The eyes of faith

 

Through these eyes I see the world as it truly ought to be

A world where all the people live

in truth and harmony.

 

Through these ears I hear the cry that comes from those in pain

Like the whimper of a puppy,

left out in the rain.

 

Through these hands I feel the evil that blinds the minds of men

Only when their eyes have opened

will they find their lives again.

 

And through these feet I feel the path I know that I must walk

A way of righteous living,

 cause talk is only talk.

 

So in closing, this I’ll say to make this truth be known

It’s through the eyes of faith my friend

that all good things are sown.

Very powerful- you are an incredible poet! You have a true gift! I believe that, as writers, we reveal hidden truths about who we are- but you just come out and say it- as it should be said. Well done! You can really tell how much you enjoy writing & life itself- thank you for sharing this piece-

wow i loved this - it was so touching and its an eye opener too.
A way of righteous living,
cause talk is only talk.
a lot of people preach about faith, but the sad truth is that you dont see it in their lives.... this was a wonderful message, short yet more powerful that a long sermon! and i liked your note too:
