Louise Nelson Poet Dramatic Monologue

I Will Hope In He

Life is not fair nor is liberty and justice unified 
So I will hope in He the God to whom I cry

When I think about this presidential election 
And we now have Donald Trump 
I am suspect about his abilities 
And how he won has me stumped 
I know what he is but I can't seem to understand
How the delegates of the Electoral College 
Voted for this man

And looking at the tendencies of society today 
Racism is alive and well Blacks being killed every day 
Black lives under attack since the days of slavery 
Nothing has changed Oh Lord help us please

I will hope in He my Lord Jesus the Christ 
Trusting in Him to bring some salvation in this life 
I will hope in He my Lord and Savior 
Praying that He can change the white man's behavior

And in spite of my circumstances and my situation 
I won't allow my character to suffer manipulation 
I am who God made me, I am a child of the King
And I will lament to my God for true change 
Only He can bring

A new dawn is coming hope will arise 
I place my trust in God His inheritance is my prize
Holding Onto Promises Expected 
I will hope in He
The omnipotent and omnipresent God
Who assures me victory 

His mercies never cease 
His grace will endure 
I will hope in He
Today and forever more
