Act of  God

I was talking with my neighbor just the other day
He said 'if there really is a God, then why must we live this way'

You can talk about the wars that have killed the young
You can talk of floods and catastrophes
You can talk about the starving in Africa
But what do you say of me

He taught  us how love our brother
Yes, His is the Gospel of peace
His voiced calmed the raging storms
He  fed the hungry

You can talk of those suffering with AIDS
You can talk of scams from preachers on TV
You can talk about world leaders and goverenment
But what do you say of me

His healing hand touched the leper
The merchants in the temple made Him rage
This world and its kingdoms will all pass away
But Jesus the Christ will forever reign

Why should God take the blame for all of the evil of man
When He gave us His only begotten Son  who had a different plan
When He gave us His only begotten Son he had our salvation planned
