No doubt you are the people,
That wisdom will die with you;
But the words in the Gospel,
Will live on and continue.
But I also have a mind,
And am not inferior;
As being humbled and kind,
And God is superior.
So, what do you talk about,
Of being a laughingstock;
By calling God having doubt,
Through prayer in having a talk.
The righteous and upright man,
A laughingstock to the world;
Because a travesty can,
While insults will be hurled.
If anyone is at ease,
Holds tragedy in contempt;
Thinks he is prepared to please,
Slipping feet make an attempt.
The tents of robbers are sound,
Who provokes God is secure;
In time their minds will confound,
Temptation causes a lure.
The power of God provides,
Ask animals to instruct;
A bird in the sky abides,
Obedient in conduct.
So, ask the beasts who will teach,
They will tell you and inform;
Speak to the earth who will preach,
And declaring you the norm.
Which of all these do not know,
The hand of the Lord has done;
The marvels that He does show,
For soon you will see the Son.
Does not the ear test each word,
As the lips and tongue taste food;
Adhere to what you have heard,
For a holy attitude.
