LONGSUFFERING

I HEARD A TRAGIC STORY TODAY

   ABOUT CRUSHING THE HALF BORN’S HEADS;

ALL IN THE NAME OF FREEDOM’S RIGHTS;

   LET THE BABY SUFFER INSTEAD!

THIS IS BECOMING BOLDLY SPECIFIC;

   IN A CHALLENGE TO GOD’S WAY;

IT’S NOT ONLY MURDER;

   IT’S SATAN’S HEAD THAT IS TO BE CRUSHED EACH DAY!

I PICTURED THE PAIN

   AND THE WHOLE OPERATION;

IT MADE ME WANT TO FIGHT;

   THEN HE SHOWED ME A PICTURE

ABOUT MYSELF;

   IN THE FIGHTING I’VE DONE

 FOR MY RIGHTS.

COULD IT BE, I WONDER,

   THAT I’M MORE GUILTY

OF THE CHILDREN THAT I HAVE BIRTHED;

   TO FIGHT FOR MY RIGHTS

AND  COMPROMISE,

   WITH EXCUSES OF FREE CHOICES WORTH?            

IF YOU DON’T THINK THAT’S TRUE;

   JUST MENTION ORDER;

EVALUATE YOUR REACTION;

   A MILLION EXCUSES, I GUARANTEE,

 IN THE NAME OF YOUR OWN SATISFACTION.

I REALLY DON’T THINK

   THAT A CHILD WOULD REBEL

AND MAKE OBVIOUS CHOICES

   THAT WOULD LEAD TO HELL;

IF THEY SAW IN THE PARENTS

   ONLY GOD’S WAY;

AND  PROVE THAT GOD MEANT

   ALL THAT HE HAD TO SAY.

SO WHO IS MORE GUILTY:

   THE WORLD OR ME?

AT LEAST THAT BABY’S IN ETERNITY!

   MAKE NO MISTAKE;

GOD’S JUDGEMENT WILL COME

   ON THE PEOPLE THAT DO THIS:

THE GUILTY ONES!

GOD DIDN’T PUT ME HERE

   UPON THIS EARTH;

AND LEAVE ME WITH NO PROTECTION;

   BUT IN THE NAME OF GRACE,

AM I DOING THE SAME;

   NOT CONFORMING TO HIS PERFECTION?     

OPINIONS AND BETTER IDEAS REIGN KING

   AND SIT ON THE THRONE OF EVERYTHING;

YET, THERE’S ONLY ONE WAY

   THAT HE PROMISED TO BLESS;

ARE WE BEING LULLED INTO A FALSE REST?      

ASK YOURSELF THIS:

   CAN I SAY TO ANOTHER,

HE’LL DO EVERY WORD THAT HE SAID?

   AM I SERVING; EXISTING;

AND WONDERING WHY;

   WHILE THESE THOUGHTS FLOAT AROUND IN MY HEAD?

HOW RIDICULOUS TO WALK ABOUT

   ON THIS EARTH;

ON THIS PLANET OF TRAINING,

   WHERE I’VE BEEN BIRTHED;

AND NOT FIND OUT, WHAT’S ‘OFF’ IN ME;

   WHILE I FIGHT FOR MY RIGHTS:

SHALLOW VICTORY!!!!

I REALLY BELIEVE THIS ABORTION PLAN;

   WILL BRING SEVERE JUDGEMENT

UPON OUR LAND;

   BUT WILL WE BE READY

JUST SUDDENLY BELIEVE?

   HAS NOT JUDGING OURSELVES,

LET US BE DECEIVED?

YOU CAN SAY, WELL, I’M TRYING;

   WHAT MORE CAN I DO?

WILL YOU GET IN ORDER

   LIKE HE TOLD YOU TO?

OR FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS,

   JUST LIKE THEM

AND EXPOUND ON THE TRAVESTIES       

   AND NEVER BEGIN

TO JUDGE YOURSELF, AND GET OFF

   THAT  CURSED ROAD

IS THE PAIN TO INTENSE TO BE EXPOSED?         

THE PAIN WAS INTENSE

   FOR THE BABIES TOO;

BUT THEY DIDN’T HAVE CHOICES

   LIKE ME AND YOU.

I CAN SAY, IT’S TOO LATE;

   THEY’RE ALREADY GROWN;

IS IT EVER TOO LATE?

   GOD’S STILL ON HIS THRONE.

I SUSPECT, THOU, THAT ISN’T

   REALLY THE REASON;

WILL THERE EVER BE

   A CONVENIENT SEASON?

I LOVE TO HEAR OF THE GOODNESS OF GOD;

   AND, BELIEVE ME, I KNOW THAT IS TRUE;      

BUT WHAT HAS THAT STIMULATED IN ME;

   BUT REBELLION OF WHAT I SHOULD DO?

I THINK, IF I REALLY BELIEVED

   THAT WAS TRUE;

 (WITH RELIGION AND WORKS CRUCIFIED);     

   I WOULD RESPOND

TO HIS PAYMENT FOR ME

   AND TRUST I CAN LET MY WAY DIE.

WITH HIM BEING LORD;

   PLAYED OUT HERE ON EARTH;

I’D SUBMIT MYSELF TO HIS ORDER;

   HE’S MORE THAN PROVEN

THAT IS HIS WILL;

   WITH OCEANS HOLDING THEIR BORDER.                    

WELL, MEN CAN’T BE TRUSTED:

   WAS MY THEME SONG;

OR WAS IT THE SUBMITTED HEART 

   THAT WAS WRONG?

I’VE OFTEN EXPERIENCED,

   WHEN I WANT TO KNOW

WHAT HE WANTS TO SAY TO ME;

   HE PROTECTS THIS MOVE;

BECAUSE IT’S HIM THAT I TRUST;

   OUT OF THIS, COMES A UNITY.

I WANT YOU TO KNOW,

   I’M NOT WRITING THIS RHYME;

THESE ARE THINGS HE WANTS ME TO SEE;

   AN INSTRUCTION FROM HEAVEN;

WITH SATAN REVEALED;

   NOT JUST IN OTHERS; IN THE LIFE OF ME!

I  DIDN’T SEE THE PARALLEL

   OF THE ABORTIONISTS AND MYSELF;

I SEE IT NOW AND I KNOW IT’S TRUE;

   MY QUESTION TO HIM, THEN IS:

WHAT CAN I DO?

   SO THIS ERROR WON’T PROSPER

IN OTHERS TOO;

BECAUSE, LORD, I KNOW

   THAT’S ALWAYS YOUR PLAN

WITH JUDGEMENT PAID FOR

   AND VICTORY AT HAND!

THE WORLD HAS PROVEN

  THAT UNITY WORKS;

THEY WORKED CORPORATE POWER TOO.

   SO WHAT SHOULD THIS PROVE

TO “BONES ON THEIR OWN”:

   IS THE WORLD A LOT SMARTER THAN YOU?   

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE THAT I CAN SEE

   IS MONEY’S THEIR GOD;

BUT WHAT ABOUT ME?

   DOES, IN FACT, IT PLAY OUT

THE VERY SAME;

   WITH EXCUSES; NOT POWER

FOR OUR CAPITAL GAIN?

I CAN ALMOST HEAR THE RESPONSE TO THIS

   BECAUSE I HAVE SAID IT TOO;

BUT THAT STILL DOESN’T ANSWER

   THE QUESTION ASKED:

SO, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?

WE LOVE TO HEAR THAT

   WE’RE BEING CONFORMED

TO BE EXACTLY LIKE HIM;

   IT’S A FINISHED WORK;

IT’S ALL BEEN DONE;

   WILL REALLY MAKE US GRIN.

BUT, DID THAT ‘JUST HAPPEN’

   IN JESUS’ LIFE?

DID FATHER DELIVER HIM

   FROM ALL  STRIFE?

SO, WHAT IS THE MESSAGE

 THAT WE NEED TO HEAR?

IS IT THAT WE CAN TRUST HIM?

   WE’VE NOTHING TO FEAR?

THAT ISN’T WHAT OUR ACTIONS SAY;

   (AND THEY DO SCREAM LOUDER THAN WORDS)

THEY SAY; BLESS ME FIRST AND PROVE IT TO ME

   AND MAYBE I’LL LET YOU BE HEARD!

IN THIS LAND OF FREEDOMS,

   IT’S BECOME A FACT;

IT’S PRODUCED IN US

   BEING SPOILED BRATS;

AUTHORITIES ON EVERY SUBJECT;

   WITHOUT ANY POWER

IN OUR OWN REPUBLIC.

IT CAN STILL BE REVERSED,

   IF WE’LL JUST QUIT HIDING

 AND PRETENDING THINGS ARE O.K.;

   THAT KIND OF CAUTION,

THROW TO THE WIND,

   AND DO WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

REMOVING THE CROWN’S NOT AN EASY TASK;

   DO YOU HAVE A CHOICE IN YOUR LIFE?

AT THE VERY LEAST, THIS WILL PROVE TO YOU;

   YOUR NEED TO ALWAYS BE ‘RIGHT’.

BUT LET’S FACTOR IN

   THE POWER THAT’S RELEASED

WHEN YOU WANT TO DO IT HIS WAY;

   YOU NOW HAVE HIS EAR;

AND OH, WHAT AN EAR;

   THAT WILL HEAR ALL

THAT YOU HAVE TO SAY.

YOU’VE CREATED IN US, LORD,

   A NEED FOR YOU

AND A NEED FOR THE ‘YOU’ IN EACH OTHER;

         REMOVE THE SCALES; SO THAT WE CAN SEE

AND TOGETHER STOP THIS TRAVESTY!!!!
