How Glad I am to be Alive
How Glad I am to be Alive,
it's better than the alternatives.
How Glad I am to see this world,
A little better today than yesterday.
How Divine is this world;
And how spiritual is the quest;
to make it better for all the rest.
How complete my rest,
when I've done good.
How I've cheated myself,
when I cheat another.
How, religion is something,
that is inward, uplifting.
How religious zealots,
destroy religion.
I am an Eye.
And what I see belongs to another.
It is a gift and a loan.
And I don't begrudge one moment.
I just seek to open it.
Chris
