A poem to help you ponder John 15:1-26
“If the World Hates You”
written by Dwayne Sheridan
———
A servant is not greater than his master
Enemies sought to persecute the later
It’s true
They’ll seek the former, too
He was hated by them, for his stance on
Loving the lowly more than those, in com-
-mand
The Pharasaical band
If the world hates you,
know it hated Him before
It hated you
Because you’re not it’s own
But that’s not an excuse
It may just hate you cuz you’re mean.
If the world hates you
For your compassion gleaned of
Holy fruit
And not unpleasantness that
you pursue
To justify your cruel routine
It may just hate you cuz you’re mean.
Jesus said they’d know his children by His love those
Acting with compassion, joy, and righteousness
Made new
With the Spirit, too
Not just face to face or In holy places
When backs are turned or virtual spaces
Unglued
Unholy attitude
Unglued
What’s wrong with you!
If the world hates you,
know it hated Him before
It hated you
Because you’re not it’s own
But that’s not an excuse
It may just hate you cuz you’re mean.
If the world hates you
For your compassion gleaned of
Holy fruit
And not unpleasantness that
you pursue
To justify your cruel routine
It may just hate you cuz you’re mean.
He is the Vine, we are the branches
Love is not based on circumstances
To crush those in avalanches
The ends don’t affirm cruel reactions
He is the Vine, we are the branches
Not clubs intent to break the masses
Or lift ourselves to greater advances
Unless you want tables flipped on your head
If the world hates you,
know it hated Him before
It hated you
Because you’re not it’s own
But that’s not an excuse
It may just hate you cuz you’re mean.
If the world hates you
For your compassion gleaned of
Holy fruit
And not unpleasantness that
you pursue
To justify your cruel routine
It may just hate you cuz you’re mean.
