What would you have me do??

You keep asking 'what would you have me do',

When i have picked out a special gift for you.

I notified you through my prophets west and east,

But it took six years at the least

To touch my hand and make a small stand

To step with me,

To put on my harness and learn of me.

As you become obedient to me,

I'll pour out my blessings on thee.

Some read the bible. Some sing in songs.

My word is the truth, can be carried in poems.
