Who Is Like You

Who is Like You? Who can be compared to you, Our God of Might and Splendour Of justice, wisdom, uprightness And love which is so tender Who can offer you advice Or correct you in your ways? Or amount for themselves more knowledge Or equal you in days? There is no other who knows tomorrow Before its hour has come That can bestow a blessing on earth That satisfies everyone None but you can raise the dead From the ground in which they lie And nurse them back to perfect health Never more to die. Despite all these abilities and qualities most grand There is no hint of pride in you Or the weaknesses of man. No stubbornness or selfishness, no insistence on being ‘right’ But an incomparable patience, t'ward those that wish to fight. Your calmness and your confidence That your word will always prove true, Draw men and women, young and old To put full trust in you. So who is there to compare to you Our Sovereign Lord Jehovah The answers clear, there is not one From now until forever. A.Jarvis Jan 1995
