The Meek
THE MEEK
wild horses trained for service
ridden until their will is broken
compliant complete and grafted
Jesus said the meek are blessed
implying humility and gentleness
submission untamed or identified
God-willed rule denied incomplete
where are we on meekness scales
God not implying timid and weak
but humble compliant and broken
eternal peace He promised the meek
“The meek will inherit the land and enjoy great peace”—Psalm 37:11
