FORGIVE THE WORLD, LORD


  You created heaven and earth, the universe, you are 
  Magnificent,

  Are you wondering what could possibly have happened 
  To this place?

  I always had thoughts myself that you knew what was 
  Coming long ago,

  Did you have tears of joy when so long ago you finished 
  Your six day projects.

  Such a wonderful gift, but from the beginning until this 
  Day, Struggles along the way,

  You created man, a most complex mechanism, you knew  
   That Nothing would be easy.

  You turned the first man loose, knowing that he would  
   Most Likely stumble and fall,

  Such an experiment to give free will and sit back to see 
  What mankind would do.

  Forgive the world lord for the many mistakes made, for 
  Thinking that destroyed beauty,

  For hatred and much non caring of this world, taking for 
  Granted what is really temporary.

  Forgive the world lord, for not saying to you thank you 
  Many More times than we should have.
