Poetry

---

A day for building of your wall,
The boundary far extended;
Very sturdy and will not fall,
Fortified while defended.

In that day they will come to you,
From the south as well as the sea;
Infiltration that they pursue,
Many turn a blind eye to see.

Illegally crossing border,
Causing violence and slaying;
No sense of the law and order,
Full of unlawful behaving.

But the earth will be desolate,
Because of its inhabitants;
No longer as immaculate,
Because of being militants.

Because of the fruit of their deeds,
You must start to shepherd your flock;
Showing them of what their true needs,
With compassion on how you talk.

As in the days when you came out,
God has shown you marvelous things;
There should never be any doubt,
About what His steadfast love brings.

Nations shall see and be ashamed,
Of all of the power and might;
For the greatness has been proclaimed,
Their ears deaf and eyes without sight.

As their mouths covered by their hands,
They shall be licking dust like a snake;
Like the crawling things that demands,
They shall tremble feeling the quake.

They shall turn in dread to the Lord,
The devastation they will fear;
No longer can God be ignored,
Having no choice but to revere.

Who is a God that is like you,
That will pardon iniquity;
Giving salvation to pursue,
Cleansing corruptibility.

For He delights in steadfast love,
Casting our sins into the sea;
His compassion comes from above,
A faithfulness that has to be.
