If Dawkins were right And faith is a farce A human construct If Nietzsche were right And man has outgrown God As a child outgrows his toy Then all this Hemming And Hawing Would have all been in vain All ****** folly And this time could have been put To better use Courting you And we would be So very happy Together. ~ Yet if the scriptures were right And we are spirits made flesh Having appointments with divine destiny Then you are but a thought A temptation Testing me An exaltation against His knowledge. A boon you are not But a bane. And I am to nail it all To the foot of the cross Just as how I am to nail my flesh, My sinful nature, To this altar. And in Him Shall I find all-transcendent peace. For putting the Kingdom first, Shall I receive His best. ~ That is, If.
