Grace Was Not Here

April 2008

Grace was not here tonight

Nor was kindness

Worlds apart in the effort to control

Bitterness and hate walked hand in hand

And hurt not only the young

But the old as well

How do you explain to the one that was hurt?

Grace was not here tonight

Nor was kindness

Enjoy your sleep for God heard you

Explain to Him the reason

Tell Him your excuse

He will be your judge

Was it a good reason?

I can’t answer for you

For I do not know

I only know you hurt someone tonight–Me!

Because you hurt mine!
