Thank Thee.

WHY?
Written by Colin Immelman
Why do we not more often say, "Lord, Thank Thee?
For ears to hear and eyes to see?"
Maybe we are not enough on our bended knee.
Why, we ask, is life so cruel?
Hey, take a closer look at the people who think they rule!

Celebrities, who are mere human beings,
Are put on pedestals where they get worshipped like kings and queens.
Why are we not paying closer attention to what the Good Book say?
What happened to Ascension Day?
Why was it abolished by those who have the say?
Abortions, divorces, child molestation, rape and prostitution,
Why? Are those acts really against our constitution?

Why is it so easy for us to hurt our neighbor and his feeling?
But are we not so handy in the process of forgiving, forgetting and healing?

Why must the Good Lord be kind to us, or forgive our sin?
A nation that destroys all the good that’s bin.
A world that worships Satan and his kind,
And who is totally blind,
To the beauty and purity of his creation,
Lost to us, a thankless and ignorant combination.

Don’t you think the Good Lord secretly sheds a tear in sorrow and disgust,
Because in mankind He can put no trust,
Why? He wants to save us all, rich and poor, dumb and wise,
To walk with Him one day in Paradise.
So come all, let’s take hands and kneel down in front of His feet,
Bow your heads and just say, “forgive me Lord, and Thank Thee!’’
