The Rocks Cry Out
How long must I scream at the sky?
Even the rocks join this awful chorus!
From a glorious day turned foul and sour
Centuries upon centuries, I am anxious!
Howling at the moon with the dogs,
Groaning in chilling agony to the heavens,
Birth pangs continue to weep a storm
As the Earth quakes its foundation!
My roots and branches stretch in
torture
To famines and defenseless heartbeats;
Children’s screams and blood fuel the fire
As armies march down rattled city streets.
Wars and rumors of in the daily
paper,
Deception slithers from multiple serpents,
Nations and brothers slitting throats,
With truth rewritten and no one repents.
Where
is our hope? Who will free us?
Not the abomination causing desolation!
Break the chains of the bondage of decay,
I weep and long for the day of liberation!
How
long must I scream at the sky?
Even the rocks join this awful chorus!
When will the false claims be shuttered?
Oh! The words of the Prophets – come to pass!
Even the rocks join this awful chorus!
From a glorious day turned foul and sour
Centuries upon centuries, I am anxious!
Groaning in chilling agony to the heavens,
Birth pangs continue to weep a storm
As the Earth quakes its foundation!
To famines and defenseless heartbeats;
Children’s screams and blood fuel the fire
As armies march down rattled city streets.
Deception slithers from multiple serpents,
Nations and brothers slitting throats,
With truth rewritten and no one repents.
Not the abomination causing desolation!
Break the chains of the bondage of decay,
I weep and long for the day of liberation!
Even the rocks join this awful chorus!
When will the false claims be shuttered?
Oh! The words of the Prophets – come to pass!
