It’s hard to tolerate deceit.
I won’t give up, accept defeat.
I’ll seek the truth, ignore the lie,
So much to learn before I die.
When did we stray away from truth,
Declare integrity uncouth?
The pendulum has swung too far.
Deceit will smother us like tar.
I pray that lies will soon decease,
That honesty and truth increase.
I pray that words of truth take hold,
Become a treasure sought like gold.
Lord help us all to find a way
To spread the truth with words we say.
