And God knows everything, you see;
He knows how things all aught to be.
The 'why' is just insanity
too much for human minds to free.
Think and drink the ink of love,
that God knows all from up above;
that man deserves a hateful shove,
for things he did and oft thought of.
The 'why' is just insanity
that God Himself would die for me;
that love would save eventually
that we'd behave so some would see.
Some presume they're of the call,
not knowing of their final fall;
Some presumed their flight did stall
not knowing heavens wings at all.
Don't presume a thing today,
just live and love at work and play;
one day this will fade away
only God's own love will stay.

'that God Himself would die for me;' Love that line.
Don't think the second last line is right.
Liked the poem very much.
