V4.5

Ten commands were carved in stone Yet mankind walks the road alone Breaking laws that light the way Growing more astray day by day Honor your father and mother But children turn their eyes away Too busy living their own day Forgetting love that raised them tall They barely hear their parents’ call You shall not commit adultery But hearts grow restless, vows are torn A fleeting thrill, a love forlorn Desire whispers, shadows hide The promise breaks, the truth denied You shall not steal Yet greedy hands reach out for more The rich grow richer, the poor ignored Taking what was never theirs Blind to mercy, blind to cares Thou shalt not bear false witness But lies are spoken every day On silver tongues they find their way The truth is buried, trust decays And honesty just fades away Remember the Sabbath day But work and money steal the time The sacred rest left far behind No moment still, no space to pray The world forgets the holy day Thou shalt not kill But hatred spills in endless wars The blood still stains the broken shores The weapons roar, the children fall And death becomes the loudest call You shall have no other gods Yet idols rise in hearts of men Of wealth, of power, fleeting trends They bow to gold, to pride, to fame And worship shadows without shame You shall not make idols From silver screens to glowing phones The modern altars made of stone They kneel to things that cannot save And make the soul a willing slave You shall not covet But envy eats the heart within Comparing lives, desiring sin No joy in blessings of their own They crave what others call their home Ten commands were carved in stone Yet mankind walks the road alone Breaking laws that light the way Going astray…every day These were the words… but who will hear them now?
