Judge Me!

Judge me for who I am And not by what others have said, You should really give a damn If you allow accusations to fill your head. Look at the person doing the judging Then just think to yourself and ask yourself why, Are they doing a little bit of grudging Just to give me a bloody nose or a blackened eye. Has the accuser ever cheated or lied Have they ever judged anyone falsely before, Has honestly or loyalty ever been on their side Or maybe they are just jealous, envious and sore. First look at the life that I lead Then look at what I have done and did, Then remember to first always heed Whenever others never listen or forbid. Now look at the one that is doing the deciding Is it out of resentfulness or maybe pity or shame, On false accusations their soul is riding But, never into the heavens, but into a flame. Look at the life that I am living Then look at the life my accuser had to invent, Through God I am always helping and giving My soul has not yet been spent. Look at the shoes that I walk in Before you think or even start to accuse, I can proudly tell you where I have been; Now, look at their shoes. Don't judge me by rumors or by their lies As once was spoke unto Abraham, Don't become a liar's gullible prize And if you judge, judge me for who I am. Randy L. McClave
