Welcome.
These are some of the attempts at verse that I have made over the years. I trust that they are to the glory of the Lord Jesus - and that putting them here is to His glory too.
I have now posted most that I have written at least once but continue in case a new audience finds new blessing. Occasionally I throw in some other verse.
Comment are welcome.

LAMENTATIONS
He was constrained to smite
the One He loved;
He was constrained to love the One He smote. 12/06/2018
Thanks; I had in mind that God had to smite the Lord Jesus if we were to be saved. But Psalm 141:5, "Let the righteous smite me, it is kindness": so the Lord may in love have to smite us in discipline to conform us to His mind.
I am not sure but are you talking about the One being constrained as being God or Jesus?
