The All Sufficient God

God knows us better than anyone
even we don't know ourselves like God
so can He solve all our problems?
after all He has a mighty sharp sword

Remember that God is all sovereign
can do anything at any time
for His control is His alone
He never changes always at His prime

So why doesn't God always remove
these problems we think He should?
after all He is all powerful
so problems all remove He could

But God is also all wise
knowing the beginning and the end
bringing upon us what's for our good
so our hearts He can fully mend

Sometimes we grow better
through our spiritual winter
than we do in blessed summers
for we are marathoners not a sprinter

Let's just trust fully upon our Lord
for He knows what He's doing
He's been God for ever and always
even the demon's bow at His bidding
