Apocrypha: Psalm 25 Poem by Gert Strydom

When man is busy with iniquity and darkness
there is nothing that You do not observe and comprehend
and every monstrosity is saved for judgement in Your record
but You do only want the best for each person,
where You do hear the prayers of those that do trust in You
and the clockwork for humanity keeps ticking off
where You in Your omnipotence do arrange hours, days, years and ages
even hold the forces of destruction in check,
there is nothing that You do not observe and comprehend.
