It Is GOD

 

Because of His mercies

We are not consumed

And not the myriad other factors

By which we assume.

 

It is GOD

That we live and move,

Not because we happen as some say

To be in the right groove.

 

It is GOD

That we even exist,

This fact for some strange reason

The world has missed.

 

It is GOD

Not any political directorate

That our world, though anti-God,

Is not a total wreck.

 

 

It is GOD

And not sinful man

By Whom is wonderful redemption

And our salvation plan.

 

It is GOD

That came in Jesus Christ

To transform morally corrupt man

By His sacrifice.

 

It is GOD

Whose Spirit indwells

Every single born-again believer

Saving him from hell.

 

 

It is GOD

And not our prayers

That relieves the hurting in our pain

Showing that He cares.

 

It is GOD,

In spite of our blunders

That forgives and forgives repeatedly,

Oh, He is a wonder!

 

It is GOD

And not our expertise

That feed the world’s hungry

Bringing them relief.

 

Some pray up a storm

And rely on their prayer

But when all is said and done, it is GOD

That we are still here.

 

 

It is GOD

And I can’t say it enough

That is faithful in the good times

And when it is rough.

 

Our world is broken

And the church is clueless

And so, we must depend on God

To bring peace and rest.

 

We can pray all we like

And war all we can

But all our interceding is of no avail

Outside of God’s plan.

 

 

It was GOD in the beginning

It will Be GOD at the end,

It is GOD in every transitioning

And GOD at every bend.

 

In the final analysis

It is God and not another,

He is the only LORD and Saviour

And our Heavenly Father.

 

It is GOD!

Need I say it again?

It is GOD!

Let this be your refrain!
