Speaking Unknown Languages
Speaking Unknown Languages
Beyond What You Can Ask
What good would it do,
To speak unto you;
A language unknown,
That was not your own.
How could I assist,
If you just persist;
Not explain that meant,
Of the true intent.
If I can't understand,
About your demand;
Best talk to a doll,
Or even a wall.
Many tongues on earth,
Spoken since their birth;
You can't comprehend,
The message they send.
But God knows for sure,
Each word that they pour;
Of what they may say,
Each time that they pray.
