We know all things work together,
For the good of those that love God;
As we are suppose to gather,
And showing Him honor and laud.
Those of whom He has called upon,
And in accordance with His plan;
Praising Him at the sight of dawn,
Which should be the nature of man.
Not like the grasshoppers living,
Outside as seen in the front yard;
Never caring or in giving,
Sacrifices they disregard.
The Lord is already aware,
Like the grasshopper we have greed;
All about me and do not care,
About someone who is in need.
This is so true about others,
But He sent His begotten Son;
Making us sisters and brothers,
To the only Anointed One.
Therefore, His Son was the first born,
Among the many children here;
And came to earth as to sojourn,
Because He wanted to be near.
He wanted to experience,
The nature of man in his life;
But keeping in obedience,
With the Father coping with strife.
Who will accuse of whom God chose,
For the Lord has approved of them;
Only to Satan to they pose,
As a threat to those to condemn.
Jesus had died and was brought back,
Giving us an alternate path;
Because human nature does lack,
Any protection from His wrath.
