A Key and A Lock

A key
That unlocks hope,
love, joy, peace,
faith
A lock
that locks up all hope, love, joy, peace, faith
A key
that unlocks the hope
you've waited for
the joy you hold
the peace that rests you
the faith you need
The lock
that locks all hope
doesn't believe in love
there is no joy
peace isn't something you can have
and faith isn't real
The lock
it locks up your life,
happiness,
the reason for living
for being here
for being you
but with the key
love is something you want
joy brings smiles
peace helps you rest
and faith is so strong
you can't get enough of it
so take the key
the key to hope, love, joy, peace, and faith
and unlock
the undying love
the wonderful joy
the wanted peace
the truthful faith
And may you and your key
be blessed
