A Psalm

I stand before my worldly accuser
precluded from words of exoneration
My Mediator deals with them
They have supposed they could practice law
without the law's fulfillment
They created a hybrid, a mutant,
deformed from its inception
a lawlessness called justice
Now I know I stand here not for my deliverance
but to see theirs which is far more important
Give me the grace Lord to carry out Thy will
Twin their hearts as the Ninevites
do not harden them as pharaoh
My heart aches because I know them
they are a proud stiffnecked people
whose contemptible heart is blind to truth
Let them fall upon the rock
before it fall upon them in crushing weight
Deliver us all to Your righteous way
and have us delight n Your statutes
