Sitting round the night fire
Grand-dad told the stories
Tales of olden days
battles won
enemies undone
Deliverance!
We weren’t the strongest
richest
most cunning
But we had You!
Mighty One...
Ruler of all...
We had Your power
You loved us!
Light from Your face
blinded them
And we won!
not by swords
not by bows
but by Your favour.
So we recall those olden days
We praise and worship You.
But what about today?
What about today???
What a mess!
dishonoured
retreating
plundered
butchered
scattered
mocked
humiliated
shamed
Where are You now?
I didn’t think
we’d violated Your Covenant.
Have we turned away?
Have our hearts strayed?
Wake up, Lord!
Rise up! Help us!
Show us
Your unfailing love
Please!
Please!!!
