 My Secret
By Joan Estelle High
© Dec.2003
 

They can take the light out of your earthly house.
They can do that if you can not pay your  bill
Nobody can take the light from within your soul.
Even if your physical body they should kill.

They can turn off the water to your house.
This Satanic world once did this to me.
But the water that flows from the fountain of life.
Will quench your thirst though out eternity.

They may take away your good name
And then  add both  ridicule and scorn.
but your secret name in the book of life.
Is  secure and safely hidden from all harm.

Even should they take away your hope of fame.
Dress you in rags from the day you were born.
They can't touch your robe of purest white.
Or your crown of gold upon that judgment morn.
