Whom Shall I Blame

Whom shall I blame?
Whom Shall I praise?
I have to see, both,
Sides of the shield.

You are so good, as
You can’t help it.
He is so bad, as
He can’t help it.

The man in the church,
Or the man in the jail,
All are my Christ, as
I can’t help it.

I may bless one,
Or I may curse one,
But, am I the one,
To, curse or bless one.

Whom shall I blame?
Whom shall I praise?
I have to see, both,
Sides of the shield.

He works through all hands,
Sees through all eyes,
Walks on all legs,
Breathes in all forms,
Speaks through the mouths,
And, thinks through the brains,
So, whom shall I blame?
And, whom shall I praise?
