Genesis 3 stanzas of abaCab

Why Do They Persecute You?

Jesus, I hear You weep

when evil inflicts so much pain.

I know they hurt You deep,

And yet deeper, deeper down.

Deep in the last sleep.

Your heart feels the strain.

I am safe for now.

I’m bound, yet free, in my vow.

Safe and secure for a time.

Feeling like a clown.

Or caught in a crime.

How much will You allow?

They’ve wounded Your heart.

Mine burns aflame.

Your love is pure art.

Anger is not in Your frown.

I pray for a new start.

I rest and trust in Your Name.
