Favorite Quote:
God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our consciences, but shouts in our pain. It is his megaphone to rouse a deaf world.<br /> -C.S. Lewis


Don’t go making life a race
Or it may stretch itself on and on
God is not for saving face

For one may struggle keeping pace
Until his very breath is gone
Don’t go making life a race

Some will argue death and space
Everything from nothing drawn
God is not for saving face

God is said to have his grace
Within the clouds he walks upon
Don’t go making life a race

Existence is our rightful place
Be it by nature - or by spawn
God is not for saving face

Let life not be a foul embrace
Let us all adore each beautiful dawn
Don’t go making life a race
God is not for saving face
