J.C. Chavez

Here To Adhere Too

'Sunday night service'

Just a few feet away, where the pretty people meet;
I watch in obscurity, from the very next seat.
 
It’s not that they’re better, or any closer to GOD;
But have faith in their faith, to which I must applaud.
 
And try as I might, to adhere to a course that’s true;
Black streets that run red, transform, to a cobalt blue.
 
So do not be afraid, to sit with me side by side;
We travel in similar circles, so together we may ride.
 
For the journey is long, even for a heart of zeal;
But the battle is waged from within, if you can’t tell what is real.

To my newfound friends at 'Hillsong', thank you for making me feel welcome. And teaching me compassion...
