Leading from Love
There is one G-d, and one G-d only
He took the Israelites out of Egypt
G-d brought the ten plagues on Egypt, not an angel
G-d brought the Israelites out of Egypt, not a seraph
G-d split the Sea, not Moses
G-d, in His infinite glory, performed all these wonders Himself
Yet the Israelites rebelled, worshiped a golden calf
G-d was angry, intended to write their epitaph
But Moses defended his beloved people before the Lord
Who did an about-face and lay down His sword
We all want a leader, like Moshe, who loves us
Unlike leaders today, who throw us under the bus
