LORD OF KINGS

Rulers of many lands, they were different but greedy the same,

Treasures valued beyond the real purpose of a living man.

Since the birth of man and the rising sun, war is never done,

Blood spilled with time, lies and guilt, death seems but a crime.

Some Kings sit upon thrones of deceit and evil deeds,

I wonder if there ever was one who thought more about the common good?

The Lord of Kings is a mysterious one, creator of all things great and kind,

Master of Earthly scenes, creator of the universe, that which men build and destroy.
