And God Takes the Blame

Another senseless death And God takes the blame A young girl is stabbed Left to bleed and die In the arms of her love While another curses His name Another bomb explodes And God takes the blame Innocents are left to die As villains take pride Beaming in their glory While heartaches curse His name Another drunk walks away And God takes the blame A life in a tangled heap Slips away lost As a sober drunk asks what happened While loved ones left behind Sadly curse His name So much loss and tragedy While God takes the blame People instantly cry out Why’d You let this happen As their hearts begin to doubt Sadly the true villain walks While so many curse His name Not realizing while God takes the blame The god of this world scoffs Claiming victory in the pain he’s caused Taking glee in misplaced blame While unnoticed he walks on Hidden behind his veil Enthralled in his little game But hidden from his view Time is nearly at hand For God to make a stand And all the things written long ago Are about to truly be For God is about to clear his name Of all the misplaced blame
