Unusual Fencing

I need an edge around me

This time not from mine enemy

I need protection and a line of boundary

Against those who love me

I have come to know

Not only does the evil harm me so

But all too often, those who say they love me

With words and deeds

They sometimes deposit bitter seeds



I need an edge around me

This time not from mine enemy

I need protection and a line of boundary

Against those who love me

A dis-functional culture

Breeding added ill-nature

Robs you of your present

And destroys your future



A fence to help me

Nurture that which is within me

From hostility and strife, set free

‘Tis my earnest plea

Oh Lord, build an edge around me
