Simply Put
Why do I search
For
Eloquent words
Or
A fancy phase
Why can’t I just say
That God is good
I marvel at His works
I wonder,
At His truth
So why can’t I
Just say thank you
Am I
Any less thankful
Am I
Any less grateful
I know
He’s been faithful
So why can’t I
Just say hallelujah
That is the highest praise,
Right
So,
What more should I say
Does your excessive word play
Make your praise
More inclined,
Than mine
To reach the throne of God
Hmm,
That sounds rather odd
Because the God,
I serve
Knows the hearts of all
Not just words
But the purpose, they serve
Which is,
To lift up,
The name of the Lord
Whom we serve
