Let there be light
Genesis 1:3 (John Bell)
And God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
Let there be light...
As there is no place for darkness
Or hopelessness or despair.
Ere baffling thyself and digress
Remember, God is in the air.
Let there be light...
Accept-
Whatever comes thy way,
Be it good or bad.
Don't let the situation sway
Thee to do anything mad.
Thou shalt not submit, thou shalt not fight.
Let there be light...
Forgive-
Everyone for everything,
For none of us is pure.
Vengeance yields nothing,
Revenge is not a cure.
To harm a man, thou hast no right.
Let there be light...
Decide-
Right from wrong,
Virtue from vice.
Lies never last long,
Devious payeth the price.
Thou art the priest, thou art the knight.
Let there be light...
Dream-
High and Far,
Beyond the limits of sky.
For thou shalt be at par,
With how far thy mind can fly.
Thy dreams are pious, thy hopes are bright.
Let there be light...
Revive-
Thyself from fears,
From feelings of lust.
Thy shall shed no more tears,
In Him shall thou have trust.
Shun thy frailty, vanquish thy fright.
Let there be light...
Smile-
By thy true face,
Whatever falls on thee.
For all this is by His grace,
His wish is what shall be.
The curve of thy lips, can make day out of night.
Let there be light...
"Let there be light"
These were Thy first words,
Thou Creator of everything,
Yet Thy children have utterly forgotten
What Thou uttered, and lost its meaning.
But why art Thou not moved
By this revolting sight?
and say it again....let there be light
The endless darkness of this hour,
The glooming values of mankind,
The growing shadows of greed
Making Thy children blind.
Wish Thou could hear, Thy child's plight
Lord, say it again....let there be light
Let there be light
Let there be light
And God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
~ The Bible

And this poem of yours depicts the truth of life with a noble message in it. That's what i believe" Always face the sunshine so that you cannot see your shadow which is indeed dark"
