Ponder
Lots, for a priceless Royal robe!
Faggots fly! from the wicked; flail!
Symbol of replaced; deaf lopped off lobe,
Direction true! of the pointing nail.
Why seek to be heard; and seen of men?
Follow the Shepherd; take up the tree!
Ponder the effort; find souls to win!
Discover; agency isn't free.
Hoped for escape! washing their hands,
"Am I His keeper? I know Him not!"
All could have life; following His plans,
They assume Eternity vain; scheme a plot.
Trading glory for glitter; in the meeting,
Masters love, all other Glory; is fleeting!
