God must weep - v3
God must weep
in these days, this moment;
God must agonize
for such great loss of life.
God must weep
so much more than Jesus
so many more than one friend
sent to their untimely grave.
God must weep
for the raging pandemic
for so many lives lost,
here, all around the globe.
God must weep
for the failures, the arrogance,
for so many lives lost,
in the name of free will.
God must weep
but hope is yet coming
vaccines, immunity,
are rising on the wind.
God must weep
but better times are coming
when we can be together
when normal returns.

“I will never understand American Christianity’s
response to the pandemic. I’m so grieved by
reckless choices that lead to real life consequences
for the whole community. And I wonder in the
Church’s failure in this also grieves the heart of God.”

if "#Jesus wept." for the death of one friend,
Lazarus, how much more so must #God weep for this
loss of life from the pandemic.
John 11:35
“Jesus wept.”
