A prophetic psalm The Lord hides himself Yes, God amidst mortals Shows up as the unknown Came from humble home Lived as an ordinary man Saw what men did to him Malhanded their Creator Oblivious of spirit identity They showed true indices The scope of their hearts So judgment can be just And justice determined So the full scale is seen A cup takes all pouring Till it is filled to the brim Then it overflows—spills Content not re-contained Some trust in the chariots Some defined holy amiss Limited their applications Of what needs be holistic Blessed are the merciful For they shall get mercy You who did show mercy You have given blessings Come into the light now To reveal yourself clearly So yours will come to you Blessed be the Lord God Be blessed of the Lord 🙏
