~ An Hour With You~

If I knew not fear,
I would know not courage.
If I knew not weakness,
I would know not strength.

If I knew not criticism,
I would know not praise.
If I knew not hatred,
I would know not love.

If I knew not ingratitude,
I would know not thankfulness.
If I knew not turmoil,
I would know not peace

If I knew not anguish,
I would know not comfort.
If I knew not skepticism,
I would know not faith.

If I knew not egotistical,
I would know not unselfishness.
If I knew not sorrow,
I would know not joy.

If I knew not arrogance,
I would know not humbleness.
If I knew not cowardice,
I would know not valor.

If I knew not despair,
I would know not hope.
If I knew not ruthlessness,
I would know not merciful.

If I knew not falsity,
I would know not honesty.
If I knew not contempt,
I would know not reverence.

If I knew not failure,
I would know not achievement.
If I knew not cruelty,
I would know not kindness.

If I knew not fault,
I would know not forgiveness.
If I knew not captivity,
I would know not freedom.

If I knew not tribulations,
I would know not endurance
If I knew not death,
I would know not life.

If I knew not ending,
I would know not eternity.
If I knew not The Creator,
I would know,
I Am Lost.
