faith.

we all have the faith that we need
to move mountains,
but we put our faith in the wrong things,
the wrong people.
do we believe that it will come true,
that our faith in people.
will see us through,
when they let us down,
even with the best of intentions.
who will understand,
when institutions fail,
where is it that we will turn.
things change,
people change
but the word of the Lord endures for ever.
