  
  MASONRY ON THE INSIDE
  By Ezekiel M. Bey, FPS
  Masonry prepares us, for 
  the inner man
  Masonry assists us, helps us understand
  Masonry’s the spirit what we are inside
  Masonry’s the knowledge of the inner eye
  All of us have entered through the inner door
  Thrice a voice had spoken, 
  was it all your choice
  With all faith and confidence we confirmed with “yea”
  It was all a wonder, at high noon’s mid-day
  As the apprentice learned, that the truth tells all
  As he build on bricks, 
  soon became a fellow
  He perfected arts, from the Master’s lead
  A true Master rose from a grip of needs
  Oh those ruffians ran, from desperation’s call
  One by one it happened, 
  yes they had to fall
  Solomon the wise, or Solomon the fool
  You are no KING Solomon breaking all the rules
  Oh the power of greed, a destructive path.
  You can rule with iron, 
  don’t ignore the craft
  It does not take much to connect the dots
  You can switch positions to reveal your plot
  Some have said the winner, just gave birth to lose
  Those you chose the loser will rise up to rule
  
  God has said the first, 
  shall indeed be last
  And the last be first of the greener grass.
  So the hour glass changed, from the upper chamber
  Ending sands of time, to the lower nature
  Till the last grain falls, No more sun dial’s tick
  Till the clock’s last 
  second, till the last laid brick.
  So you wonder why, why I haven’t fell.
  Made of the best timber, of the strongest cell.
  Its because of Faith, it’s because of Mercy.
  Its because of Grace, it’s because God
  RAISED ME!
