The World Stands In Awe
Blinded by hatred and greed
Drunk with arrogance and power
Drowning in deceit and delusions
Prompted by their hired seers
Who spend sleepless nights consulting
Whispering deadly secrets, conjuring schemes
While their masters play ‘god’
Confusing mercy and patience for weakness
They forget there is One Mighty God
In whom past, present and future lies
Now the tide begins to turn
And none can stay His mighty hand
For he has heard the bitter cries of the poor
While their oppressors fill their coffers
The silent cries, have reached Heaven's gates
All they plead for is just deliverance
A new day to work and feed their children
To whom freedom has been denied
Today, he has spoken in time
And the world stands to watch in awe
As the wall of mighty dictators
Fall like dominoes

Note: Eyes focused on the Middle East and Northern Africa. And I know many of us are concerned about what will it mean for us... only God knows and since he 's in control, whatever happens we can be sure it will turn out for the good in the end, my friends.
