Be Careful! by Joshua Dolash


While others secretly scheme against the powerless Do not participate with them; instead stand and fight for the weak Correct the oppressor and keep him accountable For this is what the Lord does to those who prey on His people He cracks and wraps his searing whip around their necks Dragging them across dust and sharp stone He beats them with his iron rod like waves beating against rocks No one who seeks blood will go unpunished by the Mighty King But he who listens to these words will be wiser than a leader’s councilor And his days will be long; he will be remembered by God
