My identity
Who I am?I don't know!
Where I come from?I can't tell!
Why I'm born?I can't guess!
What'll become of me?
Only the future'll tell!
What I know which I can boast,
That I'm what God says I am!
I'm created by One who creates everything,
Fashioned by One who designs everything,
Control by One who made everything!
This what the Good book told me
This what I believe it's true
Though I've no proof
Making Others call me real fool.
Sometimes I doubt myself
If all these really indeed true!
Who am I?
One million Dollar question haunting me still!
I've searched the answer through everywhere!
It really made me look thin like stick!
When I remembered the hell I passed through,
Searching for purpose of my existence,
It really made me really truly angry!
It really made me Wonder
Why a lovely Father"ll make His Children Wander longer for answer.
This made my worry to grow!
This made my tear to ceaselessly flow making me look old!
One day just yesterday,I decided not to bother any longer the search,
Afterall I've searched through everywhere for answer,
Now,I can't continue any further!
Just yesterday,I discovered Why!
Just yesterday,I've seen my error:
I've searched through everywhere
But still I'ven't tried one place!
I'ven't searched this heart of mine sincerely!
I've been searching with depression,
Now I'll use rugged determination to solve this question!
Today,I'm ready to start the Search for my Identity!
I've counted the cost
I'll try to gain time loss!
This is my sworn duty to myself!
Wish me well that I succeed!
