Analysis of Pathfinding by the Most High
Psalm 71 tells it right
Old Guy with his share of troubles.
Attacks. Slander. Needs.
Doubts about consistent Love.
But the Righteous Hand
And Father known
To be close and busy.
Sustaining. Guiding.
And vindicating
In the end of it all.
Yeah, Justice and Mercy
Get the Final Say.
Never to be reversed.
And this Old Guy still
Has a large task, and assignment.
Tell the Young.
Tell them true and sincere.
Gently with Love
And large listening ears.
Stand up straight, Doug.
