We are the fools.
The alternative to the world’s wisdom.
When they say hate, we say love.
When they say hawk, we say dove.
When they say rich, we say poor.
When they say fight, we end the war.
When arrogance sweeps o’er the land,
We bend our knees and fold our hands.
When they seek power over others,
We walk beside sisters and brothers.
When they depend upon our silence
Amidst injustice, greed, and violence,
We raise our voices loud and strong,
To praise what’s right, and stop what’s wrong.
And when they hope in earthly things,
We put our faith in Heaven’s King.
Who rode an ass, and bore a cross,
To show the world what it has lost.
Under Christ’s Mercy,
Brent
