The Crucified Thief
I am a crucified thief,
Dying for my unnumbered sins;
Beside me dies the ‘sinful’ God
Who takes away the sin of the world.
His fingers freeze from cold,
His eyes are dark with desert dust,
His throat is coarse from thirst
He suffers thus for me and you.
I am a crucified thief,
Stealing away the love of God,
I am crucified with Christ
To be with Him Paradise.
The sun above for fear hides,
The earth beneath in pain shakes,
And buried soul’s awake to weep,
While angels bow and wink in tears.
Alone I stole, I stole
But here with Christ I die
He dies for crucified thieves,
And steals their sins away.
By John Mbiti.
a.What is the poem about?
b.Describe the attitude of the persona towards the ‘sinful’ God.
