262. His Child

What if you were suddenly awakened one day
And realized you were His child?
Would you change your life so quickly
And seek to bring justice to those defiled?
Would you alter how you went about life?
Would you change how you viewed things?
Could you forgo your material pleasures
Or such other items that money brings?
How would you see the injustice in life
Or deal with murder and our wars?
Would churches offer you hope and comfort
Or would you preach outside their doors?
How would you deal with religious beliefs
Especially those that deny your existence?
Would you seek to bring peace to all
And bring harmony to religious resistance?
Would you be willing to die on the cross
And give your life so others would live?
Could you learn to love everyone so much
That for us your blood you would give?
But just think for a moment or two
For in reality you are His child at birth
Will you now awaken from your slumber
And help bring peace to all men on earth?
