When nothing seems there

Rather than calling others out

When we see the years locusts have eaten
But we know we will come out ahead
When we start to eat locusts instead!

Now find themselves around nails curled
The One who by rights is our Boss
Has become a symbol of loss

Who’s fit to make us wholly won

I’m tempted to just power through
It may be a sin

“Don’t gain from another one’s loss!”
As I feel your pain
My loss turns to gain
As Christ demonstrates Who is boss

We must learn to weaponize praise

As losing my armor unleashes Thee

But I’m no helpless waif
For even my death brings me victory!
