What poem can suffice now

Seeing again early in this millennium that the world is cruel

Unexpectedly, out of the blue

Taking away what God gives

But God is not ambushed

He will return everything in kind

Reversing the sorrows endlessly

Of this we have guarantees

The guarantee of His goodness

Of His witnessing omniscience whispering

Of His seeing and wounded Eye

Whatever sorrowful surprise

History has up its bitter sleeve

He has more and honey endowed

Softer than falling snow

More adamant than stone.

His enduring Love is.
