We do
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
If we write, and write for glory,
Who's the centre of our story?
Searching for kudos or grasping for gold,
Will not bring the glory that needs to unfold.
Vanity of vanities, low self esteem,
Is there on display, but often unseen.
To not do our will is against our nature,
But true glory is with the creator.
