    What's this Life For?

    Your function is to show your brother sin can have no cause. How futile must it be to see yourself a picture of the proof that what your function is can never be! The Holy Spirit's picture changes not the body into something it is not. It only takes away from it all signs of accusation and of blamefulness. Pictured without a purpose, it is seen as neither sick nor well, nor bad nor good. No grounds are offered that it may be judged in any way at all. It has no life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of love or fear. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open, and the mind made free again to choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a purpose to be given, that it may fulfill the function that it will receive.

    "What's This Life For?"

    Hurray for a child
    That makes it through
    If there's any way
    Because the answer lies in you
    They're laid to rest
    Before they know just what to do
    Their souls are lost
    Because they could never find
    What's this life for
    I see your soul, it's kind of gray
    I see your heart, you look away
    You see my wrist, I know your pain
    I know your purpose on your plane
    Don't say a last prayer
    Because you could never find
    What's this life for
    But they ain't here anymore
    Don't have to settle the score
    Cause we all live
    Under the reign of one king
