The Lord created the Heavens,
God also formed and made the earth;
Which had given such safe havens,
Whence from the time of our birth.
He set it up when created,
But formed it to be occupied;
But when multiplied they cheated,
As well as that they went and lied.
There are no others but the Lord,
Even though He has not spoken;
But He can never be ignored,
While you are feeling broken.
Your search for Him will be in vain,
Even when speaking fair and right;
While you are still feeling pain,
Because you are not in the light.
Go you refugees from nations,
The naïve with wooden idols;
Pray to the gods of illusions,
That gives emotional tingles.
But would not be able to save,
And giving you the salvation;
Or rescuing you from the grave,
Building eternal foundation.
So go speak and present your case,
While consulting each other;
As revealed in a distant place,
Long ago to one another.
As revealed in the distant past,
Predicted a long time ago;
The end shall have signs to forecast,
Telling us that you shall then know.
Turn to God and you will be saved,
Who live to the ends of the earth;
His salvation will be engraved,
In your heart giving you new birth.
