Clipped Wings

Of angelic visitation 
Kingdom turned to nation
Focus on flesh
(Like David Koresh)
Focus on wings 
(Whilst scorpion stings)

From humility to pride
In reverse they all ride
A focus on the now and here
With condemnation and with fear

Rather Kingdom we should seek
Being humble, being meek
Than angels flying ‘round
Keeping us on shaky ground

Rather seek the righteousness
That came to love
That came to bless
Nothing more required, really
For his Love loves us dearly
