This Life is Full of Wrong

By J. Randal Matheny

This life is full of wrong,
Its beauty deeply marred,
A cry behind the song,
And flies within the nard.

Beyond a human’s reach,
Perfection lies ahead
Where blessed acts and speech
Are filling drink and bread.

We gladly leave behind
This evil pit of filth,
To fiercely seek and find
The trove of godly wealth.
