Great Is The God

-Great Is The God-
by Keaton Foster



Great is the God
Whose hands are tied
Mired are the minds
Of those themselves confined
To them there will be no escape
With God’s feet to the flames
They scream of their lack of faith
And their need for something
Significantly more tangible
Than the ideological ramblings
Of men that lived ages ago
God will not meet their needs
He will not give them the satisfaction
Great is the God
Who will not bless them
And the infantile way
In which they have decided to act
Increasingly wicked are those minds
The ones who refuse set him free
The ones who needs more
To become one of his sheep
One of his justifiable few
God deserves an escape
He needs to be uncaged
All of human salvation
Depends upon his need
Unknowingly
The wicked and the divine
Share such a thing combined
Great is the God
Who has always known
But has done nothing to stop
Those who plotted against
He is like the hangman
Handing you the noose
Saying with a crooked smile
Only use what you need
Freewill is God’s greatest gift
And I fear at times
Our ultimate curse
God alone will always be
The one to say, so be it
The sword wielded by man
Cuts both ways
Deep to the bone
Outward he will be thrown
Always landing upon his feet
Never below those who intend
To do him the greatest harm
Great is the God
Who has been here before
He knows what to do
While of course we do not
He’ll apply just enough pressure
Just enough certainty veiled
To those who struggle to believe
He’ll let them know just as he
Wipes them from this world
He won’t start over
He’ll just remove the stains
Cleaning this place up for those
Who believe in him
Through faith alone…
