Excoriate ... Oh!

Today's word is "excoriate" ... to denounce or berate severely; flay verbally. (Dictionary.com)

Oh!
What did you expect?
To be excoriated?
That your sins would follow you,
And by evil you'd be fated?

Well then how surprising,
When you see face to face,
Your God forgive you freely,
And surround you with his grace.
