The gales of doubt are blowing
Even as you walk
Into the room
You can sense the uncertainty
It should not be this way
No, not here
In the one place
Where there ought to be faith
There is skepticism
Wherever there is assumed to be assurance
Hesitation reigns
In this sacred room
In a house of worship
In a church
Where all is to be believed
All is not
People should trust in the One
The Solitary Being
That dictates their lives
Yet they repeatedly
Annunciate the plead
That should have been said
At the first
And then taken for truth
Faith should have been accepted
Hope should have been acknowledged
The promise of the One
That was meant for all
Is now not counted on
They have doubt that rules them
That now requires them to repeat
This prayer
We need to rise up
And cast off all disbelief
And accept that we have been accepted
By God
