I know this poem is way-simplistic for me, but I found only simple words to express from my simple-minded point of view a miracle to wonderful for me, something too lofty for me to attain. This poem is proof that I am not a genius.
God is Love, God is Good;
man is wrong, man's Un-good.
There's a problem, don't you see:
How can I forgiven be?
God is Strong, God is Just
man is weak, man's Un-just.
Evil's not the problem here--
How can man and God be near?
God's Son Jesus, God with us;
God's Son Jesus died for us.
That's how God, the Good and Whole,
Bought redemption for my soul.
I hope that you will understand
How God's unbound by our command.
Sovereign Abba rules the day,
Reigns eternal: come what may.
