For God So Loved the World

For God So Loved the World
By Franklin Price

For God so loved the world        
He looks around and wonders why
 He gave his only begotten son
For us, on earth, sent him to die
That whosoever believes in him  
As he's looking down on us; with his all seeing eyes
Shall have everlasting life
Did he waste his only son on this?  He wonders and he cries

Franklin: Never fear. . . God knows what He is doing. It's just that. . . our ways are not His ways. Just keep prayed up to date with one eye on the clouds. You'll see soon enough how it will all work out. :o) oldbuck
