The World needs Men and Women....
Who cannot be bought;
Whose word is their bond;
Who put character above wealth;
Who possess opinions and a will;
Who are larger than their vocations;
Who do not hesitate to take chances;
Who will not lose their individuality in a crowd;
Who will make no compromise with wrong;
Who will be as honest in small things as in great things;
Whose ambitions are not confined to own selfish desires;
Who will not say they do it "because everyone else does it";
Who are true to their friends through good report and evil report,
in adversity as well as in prosperity;
Who do not believe that shrewdness, cunning and hard-headedness are
the best qualities for winning success;
Who are not ashamed or afraid to stand for the truth when it is unpopular;
Who can say "no" with emphasis, although all the world says "yes".

Esteeming all, redeeming all,
For such a perfect grace,
That for all who will, He toiled the hill,

Trash Superman in the Can,
Ninja Turtles too,
For Christ my King,
Not just a dream,
Became the reality.

From past the dawnings of the clock,
Time in me stood cold,
But now the tock of life began,
Because I will, He toiled the hill,
meaning, life appeared,
frosted windows, dimmed out lights,
Love engulfed again within,
Bursting out radially,
with every crimson drop.

Life now boasts authentic touch,
Rays of light seeping in,
my heart had boarded out.

It only takes one word to say,
To King and Friend alike,
The acceptance to Himself who rose,
The One who fills with light.
