by Bradley Alger

He who forged the galaxies
Dispenses justice upon the universe
Calls us by our names
Refusing to look upon the filth
The wickedness
The sin
The vile blasphemy.
His grace over powers us
As an army lays waste to
A weak stronghold.
But down below
There is one who laughs at
The wickedness
The sin
The vile blasphemy.
He leads his blasphemous hordes
Slaying and pillaging.
The One on High calls us by our names
But the lord of dark places
Calls us by our sins.
