The indictment of God
the child of a faithful man
Lo-Ammi (not my people)
turning his face from them
Are we really so different
claiming a Christian nation
yet refusing to be faithful
to walk as our savior lived
The thread too weak
feeble steps only
claiming a belief
but walking in selfishness
Lost and wandering
a faith as thin as rice paper
failing to proclaim
the love of the risen God
