GOD IS A FATHERGod is a father to all mankind,Specially those of His own kind-These are His in a special way:They've a promise of a sunful day.He is a father to all of creation:Creatures in the remotest portionOf the earth look unto His handFor meat: aside Him What can stand!God is The Father of men's spirits:From Him proceed all cords and bitsThat hold this frigile earthly tent,The body, together, He payeth their rent!If He be a Father, who careth for His'And maketh shift for men like beesDo in their hives, then begone unbelief:For our father'd arise for our relief!God is a Father to the fatherless:Weep not, oh! all ye that're helpless:Made thus, by the cold cruel handOf death, king of terror and demand!God is our Father: we His sons:On our paths He would direct many sunsTo shine as we travel through this vale,Yea, as voyage through this stormy gale!There is a home for all of His children:'Tis a home of joy and air not sullen;Located in a region of cloudless dawn,To which all the pure in heart'll be drawn. -Ojoje(A bruised Reed)
