Mark 2:7,16,24; 3:5,6
Don’t want to see the obvious,
nor truth accept, admit,
out to destroy, they’re devious,
won’t follow or submit.
Wrongly interpreting his law,
ignorant of the Lord,
falsely inventing faults, abhor
One who should be adored.
Anger and grief and deep distress
for those who would not pray.
Christ tells the man his arm to stretch –
see him, by faith, obey!
What he could not, that thing he did,
– strengthened, he could fulfil,
as he obeyed. – The others burned,
broke their own laws, to kill.
