" I Am Sorry For What I Said ... "
(Rom. 3: 10-18 / Rom. 12: 9, 10, 17, 18 / 1 Cor. 13: 1-13)
(1 Cor. 15: 33 / *Phil. 4: 8)
I Am Sorry For What I Said ...
Such Ugly Words - I've Heard Of and Read
Such Hateful Words - Taught To Tongue's Cutting Edge
... and I Am Sorry - For What I Said ...
I Am So Sorry For What I Said ...
In A World Where Prejudice & Pride Is Fed
I Do Not Want To Eat Hate & Injustice's Bread
I Saw Your Expression ... and My Soul Bled
I Let You Down - As Disappointed-Dredged
I Let You Down - Your Shocked Silence Said ...
In A World Where Wrongful-Words Are Pledged
& That Kind of Talk - Butchers-Us Into Bloodguilt, Rage-Red
Dialogue, That Damages & Even Leads To ... Dead!
But Apology's Not Enough, Nor Accepeted I Dread
Still ... I Am So Sorry For What I Said ...
... Instigated By Others' Hurt & A Hurtful-Hedge
I Fell To Where Crowds & Riots Tend To Tread
But That Is Not Me! ... and Where True Love Led ...
and GOD Whispered: 'You Know Better!' to me on my bed
& I Cried ... 'Cause I'm Sorry For What I Said ...
See How Evil, Interlopes & Pushes Us Off The Ledge?
See How Evil Always Craves To Enter Hearts & Heads!
But I Now Slam The Door On That Wicked-Rotted-Wedge!
Yet, My Words To Your Memory - On Winds Were Sped
... Words That Hit Hard ... Like A Hammer-Sledge
and I Can Understand If Your Forgiveness Has Fled
My Feet Were At Fault & Tripped Down Into Shame's Sled
I Should Have Spoke-Uphill, In Hope & Honor Instead
... and I Am So Sorry For What Was Said ...
For That Is Not The Way I Was Raised & Bred ...
My Voice Is Supposed To Rise Like Rockets To Skies & Spread
My Language Must Be Wise & Where Life's Light of Love Is Shed
My Lips Must Bring Kisses of Peace & Togetherness' Bound Threads
So Please Forgive Me - I Did Not Mean It & I Do Beg ...
for I Am Truly, So Very Sorry, For What I Said ...
