Notes About The Poem

PONDERING THOUGHTS ON GOD’S WORDS 

WAITING TO BE LIVED

 

Is it not gospel,

That we are all of one race?!

Yet, there’s racism! 

It’s one thing to know the truth;

It’s another to live it:-

 

God still speaks to us;

But we still do not listen:

To busy hating:-

Belief is one thing;

Practicing it, another:-

 

We need to live love!

Mercy, mercy, mercy Lord,

Still navigate us:

Sowing and reaping fruitful 

Lives of onderful onement:-

Mercy, mercy, mercy Lord,
Still navigate us:
