Another missile lights up the sky, and
I cry out, oh Jesus! .. Another bomb goes
off in a school and numerous children die,
and I cry out, oh Jesus! .. Another thief
stabs someone in their side, and I cry out,
oh Jesus! .. Another gun goes off and kills
innocent people standing by, and I cry out,
oh Jesus! .. Another serial rapist, another
serial killer, so many violent crimes, causing
people to lock their doors and hide, and I cry
out, oh Jesus! .. Oh Jesus, why do people have
so much hate inside! .. Another teenager O.D.'s
trying to get too high, and their parents cry
out, oh Jesus! .. Why? ..
Deeply, Deeply Heart Breaking! .. As I awoke this morning to breaking news of mass shooting, Annunciation Church 2 children killed and 17 others injured.... Heaven Help This World! .. Oh, Dear Jesus
So deeply poignant. A heartfelt poem that resonates to all of us. I concur with your Poet's Notes: ' This world needs Jesus' healing heart and hands.' My heart goes to all innocent victims.
Oh how we long for this world to be renewed! Come soon, Lord Jesus, come soon! A heart-wrenching poem that grips that terrible sadness in our souls.
As a paramedic I see many broken parts of this world, lives shattered, dreams dashed, every time I see such things I wish Christ would return sooner!
