The certificate of divorce.
Do you have it for your mother;
Your father sent away by force,
For an affair with another.
Which creditors to whom been sold,
Iniquities and transgressions;
Making you so brazenly bold,
Causing you to have aggressions.
For when God came was there no man,
When I called was there no answer;
And when God came was there a plan,
To become a good advancer.
Has God no might to deliver,
Shorter hand and cannot redeem;
Dry up the sea and the river,
Lack of water what would it mean.
He clothes Heaven with the blackness,
Making sackcloth their covering;
Motivates those with a slackness,
With wisdom for discovering.
The Lord has given you a tongue,
For all of those who have been taught;
Allowing His Word to be flung,
For sustaining of what is sought.
So, God may know how to sustain,
With the Word by who is weary;
Confessing about any stain,
That has been making you dreary.
Morning by morning God awakes,
He awakens your ear to hear;
And healing for whatever breaks,
Once you show forth that you revere.
I was not rebellious to God,
Neither did I turn away back;
As He cured me where I was flawed,
Giving me wisdom that I lack.
He who vindicates me is near,
For the Lord has justified me;
The Lord helps me because I fear,
Opens my eyes so I can see.
For all of my foes will wear out,
Since they cannot declare my guilt;
Those in the darkness may have doubt,
But my salvation firmly built.
