I Am Ecclesiastical

You have made me woebegone,
My new times apparently begun
Are at a tether, and on a leash
I will duly act like a holy priest.
 
Jesus was all heart and ache
And he did forsake the take
From the vulnerable and needy,
Out of sync with much harmony.
 
I will aspire to your desire of internal fire,
And with passion I will keep you warm,
And with looking after you I will not tire –
I’ll always be there keeping you from harm.
