Slave to His Mercy
God picked up a pitchfork
Jabbing me in the gut
All the while shouting
Get out of your rut
Startled, I said
God you’re supposed to be
Gentle and loving
Said God
“You’re right.
If you think this bad
Wait till you see what’s coming.”
“What, what, what,”
I stammered.
Pointing his finger at me, he said
“You’re not through
I have other plans for you.”
The Almighty was so irreverent
It was hard to tell
He was Heaven sent.
And
That’s the way the story goes
Sometimes he’s nice
Sometimes he’s not
Try to remember
What you might have forgot
God always shows mercy to his flock.
