A Time to Mourn
#George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, and
other victims of police brutality and hate crimes
David Dorn, Pat Underwood, and other fallen officers
victims of violent protests
And their fellow officers now victims of undeserved hate
Terrence Floyd and peaceful protesters
their peaceful message tainted by violent rioters
Business owners of all colors brutally victimized by anger and hate
Antifa, White Supremists, KKK
still hating despite how “progressive” society has become
Those who say Black Lives Matter and those who say it isn’t enough
Those who say all lives matter but the unborn
Those who say they love God but don’t love their neighbor or their brother
Those who feel neither love nor peace cannot be enough to heal their pain
that violence is the only way to be heard
Those who believe we can be healed without the living water of Jesus
if we just try harder, educate more
Lord, show your light in this time of terrific mourning
Let it begin with me
