Truly I know it is so,
How can man be in the right?
Especially God would know,
Who is standing in the light.
If someone wished to contend,
They could never answer;
Causing wrath since you offend,
And acting like a cancer.
For the Lord is wise in heart,
Being mighty in His force;
Who has hardened to impart,
Punish you to stay on course.
He who removes the mountains,
Overturn them in His wrath;
Turning rocks into fountains,
To keep you on the right path.
Who quakes land out of its place,
Causing pillars to quiver;
Compassionate to give grace,
Giving warmth when you shiver.
Who calls the sun not to rise,
Who seals up all of the stars;
As we witness with your eyes,
Being amazed at quasars.
Who does calm waves of the sea,
And taught the fish how to swim;
That Pleiades in Heaven,
A form that He had given.
Who does great things searching out,
Marvelous things beyond number;
Those with faith never have doubt,
No restraints to encumber.
Behold, He passes by me,
But unseen as He moves on;
I perceive not where is He,
Throughout the night into dawn.
Who can ever turn Him back,
While He snatches away;
Because of faith that you lack,
What do You do who will say?
