He sat on the mountainside
Ranting and raving
Pouting and doubting
When the question came.
“What are you doing here
Sitting and quitting
Not really committing
When you should be glorifying my name!”
He said, “They want me dead
Pursuing and subduing
Queuing for my undoing
My future and death one in the same.”
“How can I go on
Proclaiming and exclaiming
Inflaming and reclaiming
Souls for You when it’s You I want to blame!”
“I’m alone down here!
Hiding and chiding
Deriding and deciding
If I want to go on with this game.”
Then the storm came
Quaking and shaking
Booming and consuming
Yet his life it did not claim.
Then in a whisper
Soothing and smoothing
Alluring and reassuring
“Thousands of others fight for my name!”
