Fighting against injustice

We have to draw a line somewhere
And stand for our convictions
But many fail to do so
lest they risk some soft position
But thank God for rare exceptions
with the guts to stand their ground
and oppose some great injustice
that is being handed down
Risking job and reputation
Standing up for what is right.
Lord please comfort, bless and keep them
Make them strong and help them fight

I liked it. Short and to the point. "We have to draw a line somewhere
And stand for our convictions" and this reminded me that sometimes if need be we might have to stand alone. But that is ok with "the guts to stand their ground" Thank you for sharing your lovely poem.bouquet
