God cares for every living creature made
By Him with love, so special and boundless;
His love for mankind will not ever fade;
But man so often slips into darkness.
Only a fool would swear there is no God!
The power of God is seen in Nature’s ways;
That harmony can come ‘per se’ looks odd;
No human being has ev’r seen God’s face!
God made all things by utterance of words;
He blew His breath into His creature, man;
He loved him dearly, more than herds or birds;
Man’s soul keeps thirsting for God in life’s span.
The Tempter causes rift ’tween God and man;
He knows that sin brings man closer to him;
God helps man to repent in ways He can;
But if he doesn’t, life turns more and more, grim!
God’s mercy, like His love is infinite;
Ungrateful man forgets this mystery;
God permits not suffering without limit;
But man wants transient earthly luxury!
The God of goodness wants man to be good;
Man cannot love God as much God loves him;
The Gardener wants a flower from each bud;
But buds can’t bloom in darkness or light dim!
