At this time…
The Earth is straining
The Nations striving
Existence without You
Burning consequences of unexpected pain.
Tears shed, the strain so trying
Crying to you
Crying for Your loss:
At every independent heart
Rejecting You, rebuking,
Spilling hatred to all who truly love.
The Earth strains
The Heart breaks
The Lord blushes
At our shame.
What is to come:
I shudder, I quake
Echoing the prophecy
Of humanity’s self destruction
Salvation for all who choose —
Far too few choose.
And I sigh at the truth of it
At this time.
