You gotta really try at these things

And plead with your inner self

To agree with God

Shush and shush

The image in the pond

And break out the claws

To climb and climb and climb

You gotta really try at these things

And cave to the glory saps

To agree with God

Hand over hand

Foot on shoulder on face

Fill the bucket of doubt

And throw it out throw it out

You gotta really try at these things

To know but not see at all

To agree with God

And be all about it

Paint a picture of your faith

Even if you don’t recognize it

Then just make it be
