Man has taken ...
what was utterly simple and clean and bare --
....not complex, but warm and holy;
and rolled it into a theological nightmare ...
with degrees for all who use long words
And Latinise or even worse ..
(to further confuse and bewilder)
For out of Him we all came ..
Thro' Jesus, our mighty prince
and forgetting we were designed For Him
We fought to be For ourselves!
And so the present darkness reigns
.. and no one aims to hurry home no more!
"Oh the depths of the riches"
....wisdom unfettered!
And knowledge that knows no fail!
He knew this process would take time
and He has Eons and Ages at his beck and call
and all will end (I'm telling you)
exactly as He declared!
And in the end all rebels will be tamed
..............................
But unless He saves me from the curse
of trying to be a master of word-ology
I too will become a famous theology geek
with many learned writings to my name
but really not knowing how to explain
this thundering epic adventure
To my grand kids!
Or how to whisper
To my Abba Dad
(from the lonely child within)
And tell Him simply that
I sometimes need a midday hug from Him!.
"To you be the glory Jesus! Alleluia!"
{I mean well done Jesus! Cool!}
Save me from the fool that once held sway:
I love you! Every step of the way!
.. Since first you grabbed my frightened heart in '78!
"Jesus my Lord .. I think you're great"
Dad! I'll chat to you again throughout the day!
And by the way, (As if you didn't know)
I'm here in Galway
