Might of the Meek

"Seek ye the Lord, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought His judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness" (Zephaniah 2:3). "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth" (Matthew 5:5).

There is a perception that's wrong
Concerning that trait God calls "meek."
The meek in God's sight are the strong;
Though others perceive them as weak.

The meek shall inherit the earth,
For they know it belongs to the Lord.
They work and they wait for the worth
Of a new earth and heaven restored.

Remember that Jesus is meek;
Almighty, yet lowly in heart.
So let us His meekness seek,
And wait for the strength He'll impart.
