Infamous Amos

The lion has roared But has anyone heard? The jungle wilds have listened All have scattered and hidden Each time a sparrow falls Our Heavenly Father sees all And hastens to the birdy's fall The Divine questioner has spoken But the human hearer has not heard Our busied hearts have yet to be stirred Too many think repentance is too absurd We dismiss God, refusing to be disturbed The trumpet is sounding loud and clear, Far and near, but where is the fear? Nine questions of obvious "No" answers* Obvious answers but total blindness Divine secrets have been revealed, Released to restore and to heal, In order to avoid the bitter pill Lord, turn your face our way still Lord, may your judgment be rescinded May your magnanimous mercies be extended We are easily frighten by pandemics and stall May we not fail to hear and heed the clarion call 071820PSCtest, Strand Completely New(13), Brian Strand *Inspired by Amos 3. 1P
