Return To Paradise
The natural man has his needs
physically he plants his seeds
concerned for his daily bread
and a place to rest his head
The evil man plants his seeds
whence he goes, grows naught but weeds
the food upon which he does feast
is that which is below the beast
The soul of man is deep within
struggling to overcome the sins
of the evil and natural man
and return to Eden, the promised land
The Spirit of man yearns to sing
of Celestial splendor with the King
and return with Him, to Paradise
where there is no fear, where no Soul cries

P.S. My belief is the reason I do not live in fear.
