My life is my dreams
My joys and my mind -
Mine as a coin to trade, I find,
For pleasure, fulfillment, meaning.
My life is my hoard
My hope and my wealth -
Mine to give my youth and my health
For pleasure - fulfillment - meaning.
My life is smothered
By such a clutch -
Too starved and crushed to yield me much
Of pleasure - fulfillment - meaning.
My life is God's
To break and pour
On thirsty ground, and yield back more
Of pleasure - fulfillment - meaning.
My life is His
And here I find
The keenest pain, the deepest kind
Of pleasure - fulfillment - meaning.
