I sit here and think of my efforts:
The time and the thought I have gave,
The dreams that I have as a poet,
The lives I believe I can save.
If things go half as well as I figure,
I'll accomplish such good and so much.
The book, I've no doubt, is anointed.
God gave it for lives I might touch.
Many times I have gotten discouraged.
I finally saw this thing true.
I truly believe in my mission.
It will do what I hope it will do...
In order to be as successful,
As God led me, clear to believe.
I need lots of people to help me,
If my goal, I do truly achieve.
Alone I might make a slight fizzle.
I might touch a life here and there.
With others partaking my efforts -
Well Satan, you better beware.
One man, it is said, makes a difference,
In seeing large problems resolved.
He does it by seeing that others
Get excited, informed and involved.
Let's take on this problem together,
Before it becomes any worse.
Together, we might make a difference,
In ending this miserable curse.
