Who?

Proverbs 16:2 and 4 Wisdom Is Better Than GoldAll the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
But the Lord weighs the spirits.
The Lord has made all for Himself,
Yes, even the wicked for the day of doom.
  Who ...

 

Who is weak and who is wicked?

Who will be judged that way?

Is it me or is it you?

Yes it must be all today.

 

If I’m weak, I can be strong

but if  wicked where is hope?

Is my destiny then written

so I will know how to cope?

 

Are the wicked so to be destined

from the days before I was born?

But if don’t all have an opportunity

how to believe in any form?

 

If a Hindu or a Buddhist

seem to feel that they are right.

Are they weak or just plain wicked

performing all their daily plights?

 

Or what if a Christian man

schemes and plots for his own gain.

He must be considered wicked

but by Who ... is my refrain?

 

“Judging daily one another?”

Is not that wicked in itself?

By whose measure are we meeting?

By whose standards ... can you tell?
