This Should Not Happen

    Lament, lament
    the suffering of our name
    it is too much, too long

    Counted as rebels, disloyal
    made to wander and to die
    not welcome turned away

    How can we survive
    passed out, collapsed
    weak water heart remembers

    We have waited
    we have waited
    but we are so small

        (Amos 7)
