Bible Marginalia- Sing the Lord's Song!

Bible Marginalia Series- #265

Psalm 137: 4

I have been thinking of this verse
 for a few weeks now-
 How shall we sing the Lord's Song?
Somehow in the aftermath 
of the shootings in Las Vegas- 
this thought comes front and center.
In a world full of disaster and hurting people,
where discouragement reigns supreme,
 hope slips away between 
the crevices of our days.
How do we respond 
as followers of Jesus?
We sing His GOODNESS.
We tell of His MERCY and GRACE.
Nothing that comes from us 
can begin to bridge these deep soul losses.
It must begin with our God, 
for He ALWAYS reaches for us first.
And in these days of grieving
 for so many and so much-
we certainly still have a song to sing.
We sing the LORD'S Song.
