What suites your fancy, day to day
And molds your future, anyway

Do dreams desire what's not real
To bring you down, you broken wheel

Look to your soul in pure delight
Accept your standing, with no fright

Beware! Your piece of pie can't go
The day you die, thank God it's so

If life holds court on you each day
You're nothing but a wretched stray

Hold back that tide which tempts your will
And reach for heaven, standing still

REally like this, and doesn't the world hold court each day on each of us...thank God for His provision of an advocate.

Amen.

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.
