The Great Book

In the great Book, I discovered treasures
Far too much than I could ever measure
Like an archeologist searching for artifacts
I dig deep into this great Book for facts
My mind renewed amidst my findings
Destroying within every evil entangling
Like darkness in the face of sunrise
Right in the shadow of death I arise
At me knowledge and wisdom beckons
To be my companion they both reckon
Then I became too blessed to be hidden
Never again numbered with the heathen
As I have become the light of the world
Because I answered when the Truth called

very intellectual i like dat. it has a biblical undertone

To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
