Men In Chains Poem by Benjamin Age

Men In Chains



Men in chains
In malady of the age,
Bigots in rage
Worshippers lie in state.
Another Church
Bombed last night,
Good God! take them
Out of my sight.
Is this the folly in Religion?
I thought we worship
A one God.
What have those children
Done that you bring
Them to hurt?
.
This morning,
One father murdered
His son for love of money
Imagine!
This mother abandoned
Her child, cause she can't keep him,
Holy Christ!
It takes one like you
To make the devil wise.
You must strike down
The oppressors
Of my people.
For in heart of man
Your love had dwindled.
.
Who said Christ
Did not live Nazareth?
Three days after death
He resurrect.
Up in the Heavenly
He made His throne,
So we could die tomorrow
And have a home.
In His glory, His mercy
We live in hope.
