Because To Any Creed

Because to any creed I can't say I belong Some dismiss me as one who in life has gone wrong They see me as bad since to a God I don't pray Why worry about them what they think or say Of the God called the God Within they do not seem aware The Gods that they worship in song and in prayer Cannot be great Gods since others they judge And their rights to their own beliefs them they begrudge A good God has compassion and is generous and kind And only within yourself such a God you will find Your compassion for all including the poor and downtrod Can only be born of your great inner God I wish I could tell you of my God within But in God as in life everyone cannot win.
