“Our Fathers’ War”
O Holy Spirit, that’s the place
My father fought; but in my case
It holds no challenge for me now;
Just bitterness of past – and how –I sought to get away from there,
Like Carol and Bunclody – fair
Enough – but why, of all the world,
Would we go there to flag unfurl?We need Your re-solution, Lord;
You know our pasts, our prayers you’ve heard;
Lead us to place where we might see
Your will for us, that we might be –Your “people that on earth do dwell”
Amidst some slice of living hell,
Where You can work through both our lives;
And we, as one, in You might thrive.Thanks Holy Spirit for this.
