And His Hand Is Stretched Out Still   (Bussokusekika)

Praise be unto God
For he is the one true judge
His justice is just
Only he knows all our hearts
He punishes the corrupt
And his hand is stretched out still

About this poem

I have been putting this one off for a few days...I have gotten lazy and I have been putting some of my duties off...Oh well...Anyhow...I have been thinking about the day that my signet is returned to me...Who knows... Maybe...Just maybe...I am the one who has been sent... hehehe
