an oasis in the desert
when billows roll, and lightning across the sky tears,
when the sky begins to fall, and all you can do is stare,
as your dreams come to a stall, and you know not how you will fare,
all you have to do is stop and call, call God at most for he will care.

to what extent is your achievement, have you conquered it all they'll ask
do you cherish any derailment, or with ease do you execute a task?
are you what they call an ailment, or do you have value like a forbidden tusk?
to the world you'll have to prove you are competent, lest you'll be gone and not missed like the dusk.

it may come as a shock, that your efforts they may not embrace,
do not put your hope on a clock, for by this you may loose grace,
but safely encompass your dreams on a dock, to repair and improve i a timely pace,
your efforts and trials they may mock, but remember God has put your life together by a strong lace.

i therefore beseech you not to espair, don't loose faith don't loose heart,
don't be the game but be the player,for youto come this far means you're smart
so let go of the dram of the paper chaser, there's more to life and its by playing your part,
always remember to say a prayer, and allow God to be the controller of your cart.
