Sadness



Sadness

An incredible sadness
Hangs over the plain.
It’s been here before.
It’s now here again.

..years ago..

From Dallas to Nashville
Shots brought down great men.
Assassins then followed
To do it again.
From one death to two,
Then three, even more,
The killings kept coming
Bringing death near our door.
9-11 brought terror,
Then war in its wake,
Now another massacre..
How much can we take?
..A long time ago..
From village to town
To every dark place
A man taught compassion
And showed us God’s grace.
We hated his teachings
For we loved the dark
So we crucified Jesus
To snuff out the spark.
We cursed Him and killed Him,
Because He was good.
We savored our victory
As all haters would.

..now..

We must learn the lesson
That Love is the way.
Not hatred, nor malice
Nor vengeance today.

..think about this..

We all descended
from Adam and Eve
At least that’s what
We Believers believe.
So that means we’re family,
We share the same table,
God wants us to love,
And He makes us able.

Love is the way to real life.
