I relinquish my membership – v2

I was never asked directly,

I did not receive the letter;

but I relinquish my membership

to this church.

I have no connection,

you have poisoned the water,

emptied of the Spirit,

of God’s breath.

Now just a business,

a building of brick and mortar,

nothing of the body

of Jesus, my Savior.

I relinquish my membership,

you have left me no choice;

but I remain a follower,

a child of the living God.
