Shocking levels of affliction
Shocking levels of affliction
Our misery we don’t discern
So many for a change they yearn
A modern-day crucifixion
We frown before dereliction
Offering casual unconcern
Shocking levels of affliction
Our misery we don’t discern
Making laws of interdiction
Law’s answer is to be more stern
As Christians we cannot just spurn
For they need our benediction
