Time to Leave

Paul joined a Jewish assembly
and for three months spoke there boldly
reasoning, persuading abroad
of things of the kingdom of God

Some of them refused to obey
and publicly maligned the Way
so Paul left, disciples and all
and they met in a lecture hall

A preacher may decide to leave
when there's nothing left to achieve
when slander and lies are too great
wipe off the dust and relocate

(Acts 19:8-9)
