  2. Gods minute
    I have only just a minute.
    Only sixty seconds in it.
    Forced upon me, cant refuse it.
    Didn't seek it, didn't choose it.
    But its up to me to use it.
    I must suffer if I lose it
    Give account if I abuse it
    Just a tiny little minute
    But Eternity is in it.
