ANGRY AT GOD(Peter Sprenkeler)
I will never forgetthat day that God was unkind, Burns with intensityso deep in my mind. No reason for those eventsI could find, Clenched fists and angermy teeth did grind.
So much anger and confusionmy back I did turn, On a supposed loving Godmy wrath He did earn. Took so many years of pain for me to learn, I had no right at allof His love to spurn.
I turned awaywhen I should have held Him dear, Blind pain and anguishhad filled me with fear. I wrongly blamed Himas those flames did sear, In that inferno my parents diedso did I is now clear.
The Lord was not responsibleyet how I blamed Him so, In anger I chose all the wrong paths to go. The seeds of much miseryI did foolishly sow, Now in shame I confessand I want Him to know.
I am not sure which tragedy was in fact worse, Losing my parentsor placing my faith in total reverse. I know I am tiredof riding the spiritual hearse, I now understand lifewithout Him is a curse.
So on my knees to apologiseI know He loves me still, My embarrassment so deepmy soul feels the chill. Yet I am the prodigal sonof my return He does surely thrill, I am tired of doing mineI will now do His will.
I have a chance nowsince my return from Hell, It all turned aroundwhen onto my knees I fell. His forgiveness of me rings outas clear as a bell, My fire now for Him...never again to quell.
