Short There But For The Grace Of God Go I Poems

There before the Grace of God go I,

            why?

                so I cry

                       so I try

He was walking down the side of the road
Burdened by the size of his load
He’s a man on his own, 
Without any home
A current expression 
Of the modern depression
He’s just out in the void 
Of the great unemployed
He’s there so we see
But for the grace of God go we.

Celebrate the joy

You have lived another day

Spectrum in the sky

I watch as you sit alone- dejected
many chose not to see you, nor
to look upon your tear stained face.

We do not know your story-lest we judge

or I like so many could walk on by, but I think-
'there by the grace of God go I'...

The cracks that people fall through are the cracks that can be filled
By those of us who care enough for those down and out and ill
Don’t wait around for politics government or laws
For they are not interested in anything but waging bloody wars
So spare a thought for those who live in alleys and doorways
Because therefore the grace of God go we in so many ways
So next time you see some one who is down and out of luck
Look them in the eye and say I am here to help you up....
