Alma 38
In frustration have I yearned for thunder in my voice
when a fellow being starts to make a foolish choice.
A blazing conduit of wrath direct from God's own throne,
I'd strike the sinner down to make him ponder and to groan.
But then clear memory appears of my own sinning ways,
and any preaching I might do would be a hollow phrase.
The boldest thing sometimes to do when sin makes others squirm
is to hold your ground and simply silently stand firm.
