The bad guys have it in for the good guys
as they go out to mug the defenseless,
insolent souls lost in a moral circus;
like a joke with no punchline
slapstick figures running on a dead-end.
Keep company with God,
when you're a long way from home,
on a dark and lonely road,
he will show you a place in the sun.
He has never let you down,
or looked away when you were being kicked around.
He has never wandered off to do his own thing;
he has been right there listening.
Watching over you, in his grace, love, and truth.
