Justice Smiles

Justice smiles

Gently

No revelry today

Though wickedness

Is silent and dead

the sorrow

of a lost soul

Comes quickly to

It’s head

For bitterness has lost its toll

When every day we say,

‘Oh Father, bless

And heal!

Oh Father, please forgive!’

For wicked men

Are in more pain

Than the sorrow

That they give

Oh Father, help

Us live!
