Who is more innocent than a child?
Who is more helpless than an infant?
Totally dependent on mom and dad
Society makes laws of majority
A made up morality
It’s a mix of convenience and power
Selfishness, greed and human logic
What will the populace allow?
It’s a slippery slope indeed
Our laws are flawed
They should protect the weak among us
Those not able to defend themselves
The most vulnerable depend on us
Watch out you elderly, crippled and weak!
The slope is slanting for you
Society may choose to say
Your best days are past
We think it’s best
That new laws be passed
Don’t shed Innocent Blood
The Lord hates six things; in fact, seven are detestable to him: arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that plots wicked schemes, feet eager to run to evil, a lying witness who gives false testimony, and one who stirs up trouble among brothers. Proverbs 6:16-19 CSB
For it was you who created my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will praise you because I have been remarkably and wondrously made. Your works are wondrous, and I know this very well. My bones were not hidden from you when I was made in secret, when I was formed in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw me when I was formless; all my days were written in your book and planned before a single one of them began. Psalm 139:13-16 CSB
