THE SAME GOD
 

The same God that sits beside,
for each moment of your life,
who knows you inside out,
is the same one you pray for advice?

The same God,
who is with you when,
you have an auto accident,
is the same one you pray to,
to be healed?

Something don't seem quite right.

The same God,
who witnesses you on your job,
is the same one you pray to,
for help when you lose that job?

Something don't make any sense.

The same God,
who watches you get more sick,
each and every day,
is the one you pray to get you well?

Am I missing something here?

The same God,
who see you do all wrong,
is the one you pray to,
to help you do right?

Something is not too clear.

The same God,
who watches the world turn bad,
will bless America,
and let the rest of the world,
stay bad?

What more can I say?

The same God,
who knows, watches and thinks,
who controls all,
will change things, when asked?

It seems silly to me.

The same God,
that brings the tornadoes,
is the one we pray to,
to help us deal with the aftermath?

Don't make any sense to me.

The same God,
who gives and takes life,
is the one you pray to,
to save one he is ready to take?

Isn't that sort of strange?

The same God,
who has been here all along,
we expect him to change things.
when they are going wrong,
why should or would he?
