Do Unto Others

Do Unto Others

I was on my way home when I was accosted

Dread was all I felt followed by hatred

Is this how I am to feel I thought in my rage

I am not an animal trapped in a cage

Pray then I must for those who also succumb to this deed

Those who are now most definitely in need

How can I be of more help and assistance

What can I do to create a resistance

I am to forgive and love they who hurt

I am to pray that their evilness might burst

And the result is a recovering of their God given humaneness

That we are to love all at all costs nothing else

That is what I’m told by my Lord Jesus

You Who are the most courageous

You Who suffered and died to save

You Who succumbed to those who chose not to behave

The right path is narrow and hard to follow

Forgiving others sometimes hard to swallow

But to gain what few will attain

I must be willing to love and my temper to maintain

Live as I’m told by the Golden Rule

This is my goal my hope of not becoming a fool

To live as you my Lord desires

For it is my only way to avoid the infernal satanic fires

Amen
