Waiting for Release
Where once we lived and breathed in sight
and walked with staff and rod
We now corrupt do lay about
and curse the thought of God
We say that we're not made of dust
but come from acids formed in sea
We say that random incidents
created what is you and me
No other sphere has temperament
No other earth has proved to be
sustaining life in all its forms
Held in bounds of gravity
No other sky is seen so blue
No other pasture ere so green
No other winds did blow so true
No other world has ever seen
The rise and fall of man's own kind
for generations blood and toil
So cursed to not be by His side
and forced to work the very soil
The countless wars and famine sent
to make the noble humbled still
With dust on forehead, fabric rent
the suffering to break our will
But man has ever worshiped gods
whose very hands created
Denying His authority
in thirst and never sated
And yet a remnant still remains
since we were given holy law
To know what sin and error be,
correcting what had been our flaws
And so you may believe that we
are simply random acts of chance
With no divine authority
to ever give a backwards glance
With breath and life you contemplate
the worth of those yet forming
Without pretension demonstrate
and speak of global warming
To think that you could somehow change
the universe you're riding
As if it were a mere construct
of something man's designing
Arrogance is yet unchained
and so we suffer still
The blood still runs from Calvary
to cover those who's will...
Bow in all humility
to know that they aren't God
And worship He who's very path
we are not fit to trod
That remnant will for ere' remain
as we teach our seed
And will forever look to sky
for His return with speed
