How Great is God
by W. Yvonne Birnell

How great is God I'd like to know
In our life do we let Him show?
When He says I'm sending rain
Do we mumble and complain?

Oh! God is great this I have said
I know He is - in my own head
Then late last night He hit me hard
He showed to me His Staff and Rod

He said to me, "I heard you dear
You said I'm great, I heard quite clear
I've come to put you through a test
I want to know in me you'll rest"

I ask Him Lord, "What do you mean?"
He said, "I want you to come clean
Upon me will you cast your care?
I'm great enough your cares to bear."

This statement stopped me in my tract
My head was swimming that was a fact
This verse, popped, in that mind of mine
It's those small foxes - that spoil the vine

Then I started looking to and fro
Saw lots of foxes don't you know
Foxes were eating words I'd sown
Now, I knew my words had not grown

He said, "Quit your job, I mean today
I'm great enough to supply your way."
With His Rod and Staff to comfort me
I quite my job and I'm full of glee

My God is great this I will divulge
There is no problem He can not solve
I have a new job, which is now full time
Writing about God in these here rhymes
