Marvelous Contradiction
We marvel at Christ’s compassion
Then we look in disgust at life’s whores and drunks
We marvel at Christ’s love
While our neighbor’s needs go unaided
We marvel at Christ’s silence
But scream “you’re going to hell†when the occasion arises
We marvel at Christ’s feeding of 5000
As Africa starves tonight
We marvel at Christ’s mercy
And refuse to forgive ourselves
We marvel at Christ’s giving
Then count and save every penny
I marvel at “weâ€
Yet it is “Iâ€
