[bodytext] => America, For You I Weep My glory was upon your land You trusted in My outstretched hand But trust waxed old and now you sleep America, for you I weep Too blind to see you've turned up lame You're proud of what should cause you shame You close your eyes and treat life cheap America, for you I weep Not mindful of the wind that blows You've scattered seeds you shouldn't sow A bitter harvest you will reap America, for you I weep You scramble to the world's door But don't acknowledge your own poor You're drowning in delusion deep America, for you I weep You're hearts are hard from unbelief You pile up sorrow, pain and grief Through Satan's hoops you boldly leap America, for you I weep Now miserable, naked, poor and blind Weak of heart and sick of mind So much like scattered flocks of sheep America, for you I weep There is nothing that I can't forgive Return to Me and you will live You used to pray, “… my soul to keep.” America, for you I weep © 2004 Ó Raithbheartaigh “And My people who are called by My name humble themselves And pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sins and heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14 [comments] => 5 [counter] => 197 [topic] => 11 [informant] => Eireannach [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
