So Much

There is so much strength

In the power of forgiveness

So much hope

In the heartfelt prayer.

So much love

In the heart of a woman

Faith in the second

She gives it away again.

So much truth

In a moment of weakness

So much tenderness

When he realizes he’s in love.

So much hurt

In the answer of betrayal

So much sin

Sitting every church on Sunday

Yet so much

Love carried within the walls.

So much wrong

Done in the name of good

So much right

Done in a moment of evil.

So much waste

We do every day

So much storing

Though we really should share.

So much honor

In every truth

So much darkness

In the light of day.

So much life

We still need to live it

So many fears

Keeping us imprisoned.
