THE WORLD OF MAN


The world of man stays the same
The clowns who run it are to blame.

The seed of goodness was placed on earth
For man to prove his heavenly worth.

An ongoing conflict between love and hate
As losers mislead and procrastinate.

Hallelujah for heroes that step from the line.
Facing down evil with goodness of mind.

Prevailing by kindness and concern for others
Making us feel as though they were our brothers.

Like beasts of the night feasting on souls
The soldiers of darkness rise from their holes.

We’ll greet them with faith and a willingness to fight
Never fearing to defend what’s right.

Another good one.  How very true it is that we're constantly being pulled or pushed into man's way, rather than Christ's way of life.  We must take a stand.

Thanks for sharing here.

Tom,

Warfare and the the Christian walk. What a perfect combination you've brought together here in your poem and it is true what you've eluded to here that simply doing the right thing at times can be a real challenge and I do join you in your admiration when you write...

"Hallelujah for heroes that step from the line."

Again, thank you for sharing and God bless.

-Bob
