Trials of Life (1996)

HoosainBanoo

This I would like for you to read

In time when you are sad,

It seems as though inside you bleed,

But it’s really when you are mad.

 

I don’t agree with the things you’ve heard,

For gossip is often obscured;

But life is like a lovely rose –

Let me explain this that I have said.

 

Covered with dreadful thorns,

Just as wide as a king-size bed,   

To get to that rose you have to go through

Thorns that make your life anew.

 

As I see it, you are not far away

From plucking that rose,

So wait a while, even if it may

That the wildest of winds somewhat blow.

 

You have gone the way that was prepared,

Walk that way, care not what others have declared;

Make your choice and you will see

That GOD will help you in those times of need.

 

For there is none greater than He,

For even Moses, in deepest times, did He feed -

Spiritual food does He supply,

For GOD knows in Him you rely.
