I wrote this on 4 May this year. I thought I'll post it for keep's sake.
Inspiration from Isaiah 24:14-16 and my mom's bible study question. I was thinking of Japan earthquake in "Though thousands have died in a day, And though for many, doom looms near," the radiation still pose a threat to many, if not in the present, surely in the future.
Psalm of God’s Perfect Time
O Lord, Sovereign One,
Ruler of earth and heaven,
All earth is under Thy footstool.
Thy love is to everlasting;
Thy mercy endureth forever, —
Blessed by Thy name!
All around me is desolation;
The destruction was swift and sure.
I hear voices crying out in despair—
When wilt Thou hear, O Lord, righteous One?
When wilt Thou hear their pleas and heal?
The destruction was swift and sure.
I hear voices crying out in despair—
When wilt Thou hear, O Lord, righteous One?
When wilt Thou hear their pleas and heal?
Though the world is very bleak,
Though all I can see ahead is darkness,
Though thousands have died in a day,
And though for many, doom looms near,
Yet though the Lord may seem unjust,
Though the Lord may seen unseen,
Yet through faith’s eyeglass, I see:
At God’s perfect time,
All purpose shall be accomplished,—
At God’s perfect time.
Though thousands have died in a day,
And though for many, doom looms near,
Yet though the Lord may seem unjust,
Though the Lord may seen unseen,
Yet through faith’s eyeglass, I see:
At God’s perfect time,
All purpose shall be accomplished,—
At God’s perfect time.
