o how long must this go on?
external plunder and internal thunder
woe to us, our walls crumbling under forlorn
in hours of darkness, shine Your light
in pity parties and narcisstic battles, come to our plight
in a world fraught with fraud, give us safe flight
in descent and desperation, cradle us in hope and might to continue fight
woe to whinnings and wondering wanderings
woe to worldly ways, idols and shortcomings
when injustice and pride stab the soul
we are reminded of man's futility and Your heavenly goal
let us unshackle from idols of our own making
let us not be drunk in stupor so we live in Your awakening
let us not forsake truths but bow in reverence to Thee
let us let go and rest in Your peace, hear our plea
psalm 111:10 the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom
