The Pharisees' Plight Poem

More about The Pharisees' Plight Poem

Pious Pharisees, with hearts so proud,
In righteous robes, they spoke aloud,
Their acts of faith, they did parade,
Their piety, a show well-made.
But deep within, a darkness dwelt,
Their egos swelled, their hearts withheld,
From humbleness, they turned away,
Their judgment sharp, their hearts astray.
They sought for praise, and honors bright,
Their motives veiled, in self-delight,
Their actions lacked true love and grace,
A masquerade, a hollow chase.
But Jesus saw through their facade,
He called them out, with words so broad,
He showed the way, the truth, the light,
Exposing their hypocrisy's blight.
So let us learn, from Pharisees' plight,
To seek humility, in God's sight,
With love and kindness, our hearts imbued,
In genuine faith, with gratitude.
