My Creed
By: Noah Eaton
11/21/01

My God, you’ve returned to me
I’ve signed your resume of Coventry
I am One in your sanctuary
Believe me now, I’m not afraid
I will dog-ear these memories and turn the page
To your word I shall embrace

Now that you’ve spoken to me
I am free
I kneel to my knees
And plead
I wear this new clean pair of eyes
I have the will to recognize
Unconditional love will be my simple creed
I will be…

I once thought this time would never come
To what passage did I succumb?
How did I come undone?
You reached your hand down and saved my life
Heeding to my suicide
You’ve given me insight, now I am alive

Now that you’ve spoken to me
I am free
I kneel to my knees
And plead
I wear this new clean pair of eyes
I have the will to recognize
Unconditional love will be my simple creed
I will be…

My love is my sanctity
I am but one son to your pedigree
I believe we all are prodigies
Love is all we need to look down beneath…
Love is all you need...
Love is all you shall receive...

Now that you’ve spoken to me
I am free
I kneel to my knees
And plead
I wear this new clean pair of eyes
I have the will to recognize
Unconditional love will be my simple creed
I will be…
I will be…
You will see…

As I wear this new pair of eyes ...
I see,
I see,
that your creed will be!

Its in your heart to succeed, Noah.

I know that you speak with a voice that is not your own, but one that speaks through you. . .

please, continue. . . well done my friend. . .
