God was with Ishmael


God was with Ishmael
cleaving to His promise
nurturing the boy
in the wilderness

God was with Ishmael
through human injustice
God protected him
in the wilderness

God was with Ishmael
an offspring of the promise
God raised him up
in the wilderness

God was with Ishmael
the son of Abraham
a nation would rise from him
in the wilderness
