DOUBT Am I wrong to see black emptiness after death? To see no lisht from an immortal God shine forth? Am I wrong to scoff at man's biind accepting faith? T o f orsake religion and seek lif e's rneaning elsewhere ? Am I wrong to doubt, be anconainced, then condemn? To shun God for unreaaling Himself to me? Am I wrong to iudge Him by His church's infamous past? And churchmen who speak hollou words from hollou souls? Am I wrong to think false other people's truth? To see no logic or reason in tbeir belief? Am I torong to enuy their faith and pe6ce of mind Yet reiect their answer to my spiritual need? I hope I am wrong, fo, my being cranes for faith, Craues for a hope to cling to and a God to loae. I hope I am wrong, lor I fear a lile without meaning, And a soul which liaes and dies in doubt.
