For You, Amen

Risen Savior, come to our aid
Heal the afflicted and the plagued
The legions of followers are in mourning
Give them strength to see the next morning

Let the light come through and shine on the world
Let your kindness and forgiveness be unfurled
Passed on is the man who once directed
Let another true believer be elected

Enrich the Earth with humility and joy
Let their be peace between every girl and boy
We leave the strife at your feet
With your angels, we will defeat

The powers of Hell that rage at the gate
Led by a deceiver who only knows hate
On this plane, he was the greatest man
To you, he was one of many working the plan

For you, Lord Jesus, we fight the good fight
It consumes us every single day and night
Someday, we will stand inside your house
Strong as a lion, not meek as a mouse

United we stand, but divided we stumble
Without you, our constitutions totally crumble
You’ve existed from the start, you’re the first
You know how to bring us back from the worst

I can scratch onward about how you’re great
Your excellence will never ever dissipate
By your will, for this time I’ll drop my pen
I will drop to my knees to pray again

The post of pontiff will soon be filled
Let all the policies be what you willed
May all be focused on you, eyes of laymen
We leave this verse for you, Amen

Author's Note

On occasion, I have had the ability to not be a blasphemous jerk. My ability to wax poetically on religious topics makes me wonder if there really is a God that exists and, even further, cares for my well-being. Here is an example of that attitude.

The question has to be asked, are you being touched by something enlightening? maybe a push with the pen with the help of a holy friend, they say he works in mysterious ways, could he be talking to you? through you?...you got to ask.
