The referee rang the final bell
The match is over, all is well
The fight was clean and good and fair
The champion holds arms in the air
– but the hands – those hands are joined in prayer!

No glory sought but wise words said
No philosopher he but great speaks made
For life is a fight, life is the ring
Lifes struggles are blows, dealing with them is the thing
– He, he was the greatest, the humblest king!

Known for his flamboyance, for his blow
The challenge, provoking – it was all for show…
The greatest of sinners, he changes his faith
But that is not what made him great
– He led by example, the encouraging words he did state!

Have your say...
