Foolproof
You can put your trust in Man
to protect you,
if you want to ...
But my mama didn’t raise
no fool
Daddy didn’t raise
no dummy too
I hid my precious, sparrow life
in the secret pavilion
of God’s refuge
I placed my bosom trust
completely in the LORD
That’s the honest to God truth —
Unwise bullets
can’t harm an armored soul,
whose infant cries are prayer foolproof
