Jubilee

Day after day we hear them explaining
The scene of this world now is changing
Again for war our God is arranging
Yet we see not, but dirty looks exchanging

Everyday to be like God we must try
Harder for some because He cannot lie
In the mirror they dare not look for that would imply
James counsel to themselves would apply

With wisdom from Him we indeed are blessed
And just like Job we can pass our own test
Whom the source of, we should've guessed
The hardest ones involve those we love the best

In a tunnel of darkness we may be
The end of which can be hard to see
But it will not be late, we have His guarantee
The wrong will be righted in the year of Jubilee
