The Meek Gained Mettle

Timid, blind, fearful men
rise and speak with power,
with courage, with resolve,
defy the powerful, the authority,
the council, to speak truth
to raise His banner, His teachings
in the Temple, and in the hearts
of the people, moving beyond their loss
their pain at the taking of His life
speaking with power
infused with the Spirit
With God’s words
in Jesus’ name.
