In My Pain, I Dream

Pain, terror, torture, hurt
Watch as another church is burnt
Laughter, scorn, mocking, disdain
Follow me, increase my pain

Dream, aspire, pray, hope
Trust in God, try not to mope
Walk, sit, stand, stay
Never, ever, ever give way

Sing, inspire, chant, cry
Won’t give up…unless I die
Hatred, anger, bias, race
Because of me, you’ll leave this place
