The Greatest One

God I want to write a Father’s Day poem for you You are the most loving God ever Even though You are the only God in my book You do things no one will ever know Just when we think we know you You do something different Just when we think we are at the end of our rope We realize that you are the One who is doing it all along You cause it and have it serve to your purpose God when we think we are having the wrong end of the stick You prove us wrong and the result is more than we expected Why do You do things like that? Why can’t it straight be straight So we can clearly see? Instead you put us through loops Windy roads and turns Only to lead us to where we want the most and more God - oh you are so amazing That only after you prove it to us Can we actually smile and sing praises Lord will we ever learn? You said time after time to trust you But Lord it is so hard to trust you When we don’t see the results at that minute We huff and puff All the while you are so patient with us Just one word from you - change everything And you proved that – over and over Lord you always do things for the better And do we remember that? No – definitely no You always take us Glory to glory And not going backward Hallelujah God When you are about to do something You always let us have a glimpse of it To see what it is that it is heading our way You are amazing God You give gifts at your own time And whatever you want to give You hand out lesson plans So sweetly end with needed accomplishments That is you Lord Never rest – always carry us through But do we appreciate you? We kick and scream Not knowing when the end of the tunnel is We are blinded by the rugged terrains Can’t even see where they are leading us But always to the end you show us What we do get for the unwanted trouble Are you always up to something God? Aha, yes, You are You are going to the next lesson plan already But always to the great fruit Sowing to us If only we can hold on to our eagerness To have it right now Ahh you are not going to do that, are you? Always a surprise Yes that’s You Unknowing, blinded, uncertain That is what You want for us You want us to trust in you That You are the only One in the name of the game Guide us Lord Never let us falter and lose faith Carry us through if need be But always to the next level You never leave us behind Hooray to You Lord The Absolute Being Yahweh The Universal Life Force To Whom draws all of us Yes God Take us there Beyond our limited vision To the higher places To the grandest scenery Love you Lord Happy Father’s Day Yours and yours always Your undeserving, ungrateful, unlovable Multitude All counting on You Yes Papa
