Mercy and Justice

The smell of blood dominated the field but to the culprit, He had put a shield Where is justice? Did he not deserve to be punished? The whole nation rebelled against him. Drove his patience boil down to a steam. He lost is reward, by that one thing He still chose to be forgiving Getting stoned, is hard to forget He felt every hit closer to death Determine to pardon everyone who take part He still smiled with his open heart Do justice and mercy go together? Seems like evil has it's own way To escape the trial and deal with it's crime But someone promised, there will come a time Mercy, Mercy, who has the right to wield you? Justice, Justice, are you even true? The clock is ticking when will we hear his gavel? The judge silently examining the rebels He hears the whispers and cries of all people on all nations Soon enough everyone will witness his vindication and justification Jah is a rock! He will not be moved or swayed Mercy wil be given, Justice will come in play At the end of the system of things, the revelation, sheep will be separated from goats on that day

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style, Kababayan. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed. Maligayang pasko!!!
