MOCKED BY MEN; CROWNED BY GOD

The world is harsh, its laughter scoffed,

It mocks the meek, it crowns the strong.

Yet love is patient, love is soft,

Sometimes it suffers quietly for wrong.

 

To walk in truth is seen as loss,

To give, a fool’s unyielding art.

Yet Christ first bore the heavy cross,

Despised, yet perfect in His heart.

O soul, be kind, though none may see,

And gentle, though the heart may break.

For heaven’s gaze is fixed on thee,

Not fleeting praise, nor men’s ambitions fake.

 

The road is narrow, steep the climb,

The way of „fools“ is the divine.

And through the scorn of passing time,

The crown of light shall one day shine.


Amen.
