Poetry
Our Wounded World
The wounds of the world
Are infected and deep
Filled up with bitter poison
Making the Father's heart weep
Watching as the human race
Tries to destroy itself
Putting compassion and love
on an unreachable shelf
Endless battles, fighting and war
With brother against brother
Turning upside down
God's command to love each other
squandering the riches
That are there for all to share
Allowing the shadows
To spread everywhere
Forgetting the light that
Through Jesus is inside
When we come to know him
Seeing the difference He has made
If we can allow Him to work
Spreading His compassion and love
Showing by our lives that
There is a different way to live
Bringing His healing and help
To those hurting, injured and in pain
Touching our wounded world
So that it doesn't go insane
Spreading the light of His love
Driving all the darkness away
turning our world around
Little by little day by day
