Never Go Alone

Psalm 106:7 & 8

They didn't understand Egypt's wonders,
Forget that God caused Egypt's plunders;
Forget the loving kindness to you and me,
Then even being rebellious at the sea;
Still God saved them for His name sake,
So His power to be known that He make;
It seems as to take too much for granted,
About all the seeds that God has planted;
We tend to forget everything he has done,
All the conquering victories He helped won;
In starting to think of the earthly things,
We seem to care less what the Lord brings;
Then when the greed comes to take control,
Not just a handful rather the entire bowl;
Then when something goes greatly wrong,
It is to God where we feel all blame belong;
Maybe the problem is from some bad advice,
Because God's answer to you did not suffice;
All He asks for you to love, honor and obey,
And He'll be making everything for you A-OK.
