Go Ask God Why
I have pondered and wondered
About the labyrinth of nature
But incessantly vague
Indeed it is an intriguing bother I can’t cover
From where came He to call us who never were
I can’t know how
It lies with Him who had us made
Know He everything
Yet he created the devil
Knowing man with a questionable will
Can only little shrug off evil
Yet He called him an aid to fall
Once commanding light, now king of the dark
Lead a revolt and thrown to our land
When couldn’t be contained at the higher place
How can man survive amidst this thorny space?
Why allow this slack, man can hardly mark
Don’t ask me, go ask God why
Many are his sons, yet chose for Himself one
Comes therefore no surprising
Chosen sons at every generation
The blessed folks, His toast
The father of all, an epitome of equality
Yet born of the same womb at the same time
One was liked and loved the more
By Him who loves us all
Of the same lineage where comes the diverse race
Some prosperous, some wrestling with poverty
Variety He loves, His pleasure
Gave us His word but in parables
That not all understand
Only through the knowledge given
Can all be saved, yet only a few understand
Is it deliberate to cut some away?
No, for He loves us all,
Albeit not purposely denied
The world and all ought to be answered
So need be to go ask God why
