The Only Answer

Not a few things in this world
Give worries to one's mind; 
Remedy to puzzling problems, 
He's unable to see and find.

The more man becomes wiser
Much heartache he does gain; 
And he who increases knowledge, 
Redoubles the trouble and pain.

Only the Father in heaven
Is the supplier of solution; 
For He's the Lord Almighty
That can provide protection.

Totally trust in His power, 
Rely not on what we think we know; 
Simply obey God-given law, 
Evading evil wherever we go.

Abound in faith, love, and hope, 
Moving on to spiritual maturity; 
Lead an intensive renewal of life, 
Bearing fruit abundantly.

Any matter may we encounter, 
Our loving God is always there; 
Waiting for us to call His name
To guide and give us the only answer.
