The Last Shall Be First
It’s funny how my frenemies
Sent to me
Pushed me into my destiny.
Years spend yearning for their approval
All for God to do his removal
They were cowards and fakes
Scorpions and snakes
But, now, I am wide awake
And, can see all they tried to take
You can’t curse what God has blessed
I’ve stayed strong through all my tests
There’s a path that leads to life
Where there is no more pain and strife
Don’t you know he laughs on high?
As the time sways quickly by
Don’t you know that he’s not done?
And all will perish if he is not number one
My Fears have faded to gray
Now that I follow in his ways
Doubt has been ruled out
Now that I know what he’s all about
It’s amazing what the wicked will do
Spit lies and ridicule
But, I know an incredible peace
That’s not found in the presence of a beast
I am no better than you
I just obey who is true
An orphan can say they won
When they surrender their life to the son.
