Is there an advantage,
About being born a Jew:
Do you have any vestige,
That would give you more value.
What on being circumcised,
For what reason or a need;
Will I become supersized,
Or assist to grow more seed.
They were who God invested,
Jews were trusted with His Word;
But of course sin infested,
His utmost entrusted herd.
Some of them were unfaithful,
Doing the unthinkable;
But God is still so grateful,
It would not be possible.
God hands justice when you speak,
But Christ wins your case in court;
When you are humbled and meek,
And get on ship docked in port.
But whatever we do wrong,
Always shows that God is fair;
If unfair wrath would prolong,
And you dangle from a snare.
God argues not as man would,
Then how would He judge the earth;
When you done not as you should,
Based on just what you are worth.
If I lie for more glory,
To God that He would receive;
Then I sinned on His story,
Trying to make you believe.
