Do you not know? Have you not heard?
Have you not been told from the start?
What has been said about the Word,
That you should have taken to heart.
Do you not understand thereof,
On the foundations of the earth;
God is enthroned above in love,
Thinking of its entire worth.
The ones who are living on here,
Just like a bunch of grasshoppers;
That stretches out both far and near,
Or stores with black Friday shoppers.
God makes rulers unimportant,
And all earthly judges no worth;
They have a dishonest intent,
Abusing authority on earth.
They have not been planted nor sown,
They have not rooted in the ground;
Then wither as the wind has blown,
No longer nowhere to be found.
Who could you ever compare God,
Who is considered as the same?
For each of them is just a fraud,
They are all false gods I proclaim.
Look up into the sky and see,
Who do you think created these?
The stars are shining down on me,
Brightens up the night sky with ease.
God calls each one of them by name,
Because of greatness of His might;
And strength of power to proclaim,
Producing each one of its light.
Why do you complain as you say?
My way is hidden from the Lord;
For I feel abandoned each day,
Because my rights have been ignored.
But if I wait I spread my wings,
Just like an eagle that will soar;
High in the sky above buildings,
He will not weary but will endure.
