Homo proponit, sed Deus disponit
Homo proponit, Sed Deus disponit
Man proposes, God disposes
Evil man seeks to spread
Sly and cunning smiles
Conman games they love to play
God frowns upon such foolish mortals
Reaching out with an iron hand of steel
To punish and to end
Those and that that would go againest him
Nothing material matters
Nothing but him in this world should one care for
Thunderbolts and lightening he sends
Disposing with goodness
The evil that mortal man proposes
Deep in this earth
Where eternally the battle between good and evil rages still
