We want to talk gun control
But no self- control,
Want to have religion
But avoid anything uncomfortable.
We wonder how it is
That we’ve got school shootings killing kids
But don’t bat an eye at the millions
Killed in abortion clinics.
Reading through the scripture,
An all too prevailing picture
Emerges:
When people follow God
And humbly submit under the rod,
Harvest is abundantly ripe in seep sod.
Though, when people go obscure
And obstinately turn away from the Lord,
They undoubtedly reap the demise
their actions ask for.
So, I’m tired of the blame game,
Whatever the political party may be.
If we stand united under God’s sovereignty
And repent of all that is blasphemy,
If we humbly request peace,
Then that’s exactly what we’ll be
And what we’ll receive.
Any bickering about this truth
Slides in only to destroy the morality
of youth
Thus, if we care, let us care
And not hide in the hull in the storm.
Let’s be forthright about our birthright
And rectify the wrong.
We bring upon ourselves the trouble
of our disease;
We know the path which we should go
But depart on desperate seas.
For curing, we must come humbly
before the King,
Only He can fix the suffering,
Only His peace will ease.
And then, the innocent won’t perish
On account of the souls of men
But rather, be renewed as new creation.
And united in love,
We’ll return as a great nation.
Inspired by Jonah 1, Hosea 7
