In the conception of man


Hebrews 6:4-6 

For it is impossible in the case of those who have once been enlightened, tasted the heavenly gift, become partakers of the Holy Spirit, tasted the good word of God and the miracles of the coming age, and then have committed apostasy, to renew them again to repentance, since they are crucifying the Son of God for themselves all over again and holding him up to contempt.

 

Here and there a ray of light in a world turned grey

Darkness has disappeared in the conception of man

Truth can be half-right and within children’s play

Little now is feared just loss of comfort now and then

 

We are shining examples enlightening the mind

Who we are is shown in the traces left behind

Where we’ve been we’ve left a fragrance of our core

and the influence of that last “forever” more

 

If we could change we would and pick up different colors

For white is not fashionable it is flat to out own horror

So from grey to purple or the trend of lemon-lime

All things will turn out sour in the existence that’s mine
