A Group of Young Children Went Inside of a Cave

A group of young children
Went inside of a cave
T'was not their safe haven
But, still, they were brave

Then the wise tour guide
Showed them complete darkness
He turned off the light
Each found they were sightless

He asked and each pointed
To where the exit lay
Unknowing and disjointed
Each aimed a different way

The light was turned on
They each quickly saw
Most had been wrong
A lesson we can draw

For each has a light
Given that’s spiritual
When we do what is right
It proves bright as a jewel

Always the way out
Can be found through the Lord
That’s what faith is about
When we follow His word
