1687

Humanity would soon

Learn

The Gravity of SIN

The weight of a world

Waits

For the secrets

Of creation you taught

To this man

In this the year

Of our Lord - 1687

Father

The Gravity of what you've done

Lifts me up

Spins my world around

Keeps my feet planted

On solid ground

Designs of a master

Kept in hidden rooms

You welcomed

My sincere curiosity

Saying

Take a look, my son

What do you see

You raised my name

To Heaven

To be remembered

As the one you let in

To see within

Your invisible truth

In this the year

Of our Lord - 1687

Father

The Gravity of what you've done

Lifts us up

Spins our world around

Keeps our feet planted

On solid ground

You raised my name

To Heaven

To be remembered

As the one you let in

To see within

Your invisible truth

Thank you, Father

To let me be

Your one earthly son

To share

With everyone

The Gravity of SIN

That was my year

Of our Lord - 1687

You had me write the

Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica

And I was knighted in 1705

The world studies now

The Gravity of SIN

Thank you, Father

Your faithful servant
