The Lord knows
He sees the evil
He knows those of us
who sigh and cry
who look around
and see the evil
in our midst.
We want to run
yes run
run screaming
from all this evil...
The way of man
it is not in him
to want
to do right
we must follow
hard
follow hard after God.
Because the evil
the gross evil
all around us
is falling down
all around us.
Imploding
our society is imploding...
We cannot fight it
though we must try.
We can only
walk
circumspectly
keeping our eye
on our Creator...
because you see
the Lord
does know
how to rescue
the godly people
from their trials
and He does know
how to keep
the wicked
under punishment
until that final day
of judgment...
Oh, sigh and cry
hear and fear
reverence
our Lord.
So great
is His faithfulness
His love.
So great is He.
In the midst
of all
our pain
our grief
and our sorrow
there still is
hope.
He will not fail us.
Hope in Him
Hope.
