A Worldwide Disease A disease is widespread Walks around Sleeps in everyone’s bed Invades each home, heart & every head Does not come from without Originates from the within of us Does not travel on any windy gusts Or any stormy breeze It comes from our refusal to Bend the knee To a wonderful, sovereign God To worship only ourselves, The Me Me can destroy other lives That I of I Inside each human heart It struggles & resides To have its say Its own complete way Over everything Its indulgent siren’s song It loudly sings Causes wars, murders, theft Of all true affection, kindness It is most assuredly bereft By it, love is truly an orphan left We could have a brighter world Where only purest, perfection’s love Could dwell & on wings, joy’s songs would certainly swell If we could kill off that worldwide disease THE SELF!
