On “Knee-fighting”

“I’ll fight on my knees,” the song says.
But prayer, like faith without works,
Is was God calls “dead!”
So, when you are done praying, arise!
Put on your pants and open you eyes!
Go to those who are in need:
Victims, maybe, of another’s greed
(Anybody killin’ babies in the ‘hood?
Do your community some good;
Save a baby and stop the flow,
Whether by a match or a blow.)
So, may you pray for the Lord
To protect you in your deed
As you help those in need.
Yes, soldiers and wrestlers sometimes
Find on their knees as well;
So do they please Him and avoid hell.
But there are times to put up a fight
As we preach and contend for the Right.
