Many people wonder
What it’s like to lose everything
And be the wealthiest person in the world.
“What secret do you have
That the rest of us have never heard?”
They wonder.
Many people wonder
What it’s like to be anything you want to be,
To turn left when others go right.
“What map do you have
That shows a road beyond our sight?”
They wonder.
Many people wonder
What it’s like to journey on your own
Yet never be completely alone.
“What army do you have
That surrounds you with home?”
They wonder.
Many people wonder
What it’s like to live off the prayers
Of those you long to see.
How fortunate are we
That in our family
We never have to wonder.
