A Nation In Need of You
Despite our stubbornness, your nature retains its calmness
some satisfy their falsehood with incredible tales
folly in full as they argue if you and Satan are males.
Deserving your wrath and condemnation to die
you still didn’t treat us like dust and sand
rather to our weakness and stink you give a helping hand.
In supplication, we download our heart desires
open our eyes lord to look beyond every wish
so that we begin swimming through your blessing like the fish.
You don’t lie, your word is the standard
at will you choose to either open or close
unlike man who talks in poetry and act in prose.
Your motives are the fairest, your plans, the sweetest
staying true to your promises to be our perfect manager
but so often, distractions come with tempting vinegar.
You alone deserve our consecration and dedication
your love holds a multitude of leaves as the tree
but every attache is blessed to be fruitful and free.
