Unto Thee, Heavens Poem by Etebom Ekpo

Unto thee, I lay my hope
Upon thou most sacred place I look,
Because I have nothing but you
To trust my soul, upon a solid rock

I have been rob off all I got, then
I was told, you have nothing left,
But upon thee, high places, I cast my hope
The government which knows no fault

If you take all you can see from me,
You will never access the treasure of my heart.
My wealth, my pride is deep in my mind,
Hidden far away from the range of your eyes

Upon thee, divine rod of judgment
I place my outermost standards.
I am beyond an ordinary man, don’t envy
For this is simply not my making

For the hope of my sure mind,
Unto thee, heavens I look.
For a secured peace for my soul,
Unto thee, thou high places I hope.
The vengeance, the judgment, the truth,
Unto thee, highest places of heavens
I will pelage to you, my sincere trust.
