Oh God, Oh God, Oh God Poem by Anthony Acquah

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there, or not there
Did I not plant the seed in the ground that was rich with life?

Oh God, Oh God Oh God
Are you there or not there
Did by my actions was the ground not watered?

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there or not there
Did not the seeds of my planting not take root and grow?
Did not the flowers from the seeds I had sown not bring forth new life?
Did I not set out on a journey to find you?

All I saw standing there was me.

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
I would like to be able to pick up the phone and talk to you
But you were not there, are you avoiding me, is the time not right?

Oh God, Oh God Oh God
Are you there or not there
Are we not all made in your likeness?
I feel sorry for God, he must be pretty sad.
He lost his cutest angel but it did not drive him mad.

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there or not there
Did I not tell you that I love you
Did you not believe me?

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there or not there
Did you not give me:
Eyes to see
Ears to hear your wondrous words
A mouth to speak in your name with your blessing
Legs to walk in your steps
A heart to fill pain, happiness, sadness and compassion for all people
A mind for me to make up my own decisions on what is right and wrong.

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there or not there
As I look up into the clear night sky
I see the stars shimmering like your Angels
The moon lighting there way

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there or not there
I know you are everlasting and dwell in the souls of many people
I know your love, and kindness is never failing
You are the sunshine that makes me glow
You are the strength to my weakness

Oh God, Oh God, Oh God
Are you there or not there
I thank you God that you are there.
