I CAUSED THE BLOW! by Joseph C. Ogbu (JoeNwaOgbu)

 Tears upon a haggard brow

Lord have mercy! I caused the heavy blow

No one but I, painfully made thy blood to flow

Even though I may claim not to know

My sins, my vices, all shamelessly stayed on a row

Separating our intimacy, causing me to have no trow

Deceiving me not to stay with Thee and grow

Despite Thou ever hold me not to be trapped below

That my life may remain with a heavenly dow

Still; I forgot, for my sake Thou humbly bent low

Wearing sharp thorns as Crown and taking as pillow

So to my soul to be saved, both today and tomorrow.

Yes! The hour is coming so quick

When faith again, will be firm and thick

When heads won't experience any bad kick

Neither will body feel any crick

Stand then! It's time to be well not to be sick

For Christ is here to save life from any sharp prick

Be bold! Thou won't fall; Drop thy walking-stick

Wakeup; before Him, unload thy heavy brick

Look! On thy table lies a blessing to pick

Knowing that promise of His, has no devilish trick

For His mercy leads head not to end as a hick

Even when heavy rain keeps all roads slick.

Rejoice! Is time to move to the peak

Be strong, don't be weak

Fear not; grab blessings of the Holy Week

Come to thy Father, open thy mouth and speak

Move with him, offer thy legs no break

Embrace Him, He won't allow thy life to leak

Stay with Him; His presence contains no reak

Trust! He knows a suitable activity for thee as a geek

Forgive thy foes then, put away the wreak

With no doubt; Master loves a heart that is meek

For His love a mighty treasure to be grabbed and offer a deek

Then! Let's be focused and forget world's daily creak.
