In The Ground...

In the Ground.... Song About Patience
by Nathaniel Akers

Darkened times and hidden faces
Sun don't shine in these dim places
Underground who even cares
Can't find me I'm being prepared.
What I'll be--- "Grace" did make me
Thank Lord that you did take me
to prepare me now in this hidden state
to Bring me Lord to your destined date.
Who knows me? I have no name
my greatness lies in hidden fame
mysterioulsy the sower sowed me
envisioning now how different I will be.
When I come forth and break the ground
what I've become it will astound
those who think I'm buried still
when what's alive is what they killed.
The difference now is what you're seeing
while in the ground it changed my being
the strength of what is now revealed
is the unveiling now of what's been sealed.
Above the ground grows the compliment
when what is now does not represent
the changes of this once malcontnent.
For what came forth is a glorious thing
the consequences of what life brings
when in the ground it was no sure thing.
For in the soil I left no traces
of my silent preparation,
hidden then in darkened places.
Transformation look at me
a sprouting bud and a fruitful tree.
While in the ground God did change me...
