Not a God-forsaken world
but a world forsaking God.
Where man is preoccupied
with the carnal sheathing of swords.
Where the alienation of rights
outweighs obedience and faith.
Where the natural is twisted
and the sacred is corrupted.
Where lukewarm comfort
allows for lazy dominion.
Where doctrine is lost
and morality is shifted.
No longer the age of the righteous
but that of the wicked.
Behold, the world of the wretched.
