God is God

God is God and we are not,
And neither is the devil;
So how does it happen that we ascribe
So many things to evil?

In the book of Job we read
Where Satan gives account
For all God’s children he attacks,
And even the amount

He is not allowed to do his will
In the place of mighty God
For Jesus bought the lock and key
To hell with His own blood.

And who is this “Mother Nature”?
Is she the wife of God;  
 Or a wicked wile of Satan
 Grown in corrupt sod?

Nature too is in God’s hand
To do what God says do
Our Father is not unaware
Of what nature teaches you.

And are you strong, can you resist
Your creator’s mighty will;
When He desires to change your life
Do you just sit there still?

There is naught on earth that we must fear,
Neither in the skies,
For our Father made and controls it all,
Uses it to make us wise.

If storm or trials or illness come
We must trust His grace,
And thank Him for the seeming wrong
That fills a needful place.

For He does love His children
And keeps them safe from harm;
But trains them up for heaven,
They need feel no alarm.

Yes, He is God and we are not;
And neither angel form nor devil
Can subvert or undermine His plans;
Thought they attribute them all to evil.
