PARADIGM

PARADIGM


What is my life’s paradigm,
Who but myself shall know?
What a pity that I’m lost
Too much in the life’s flow!

As I live from day to day,
Scarcely I give a thought
To the purpose for which I
Was by Him on earth brought.

I think that life’s paradigm,
Intended by the Lord,
Is to shed hatred and strike
In all hearts a love chord.

Lord give me wisdom and strength
To take the path you showed
And proceed tirelessly
Along the heaven’s road.
