painful words - v2


painful words of false teachings
of straying from our God
holding onto tradition
holding onto power
false prophets, false teachers
not sharing God’s love
a plumb line, a judgment
exposure soon to come
painful words to speak aloud
of judgment, false teachings,
words of hate, of prejudice
spoken out loud
words of the prophet
of all who stand for justice
painful words need to be spoken
speaking truth to power
