The Sorrow of Corrupt Mankind

• A Hymn of God's Words
• The Sorrow of Corrupt Mankind
• I
• Walking through the ages with God,
• who's known that God rules all things,
• the fate of all living beings,
• orchestrating, guiding everything?
• This has eluded human minds
• not because God's ways are vague
• or His plan hasn't been realized.
• For man's heart and spirit
• are far from God.
• Even as they follow God,
• though they may not see,
• they are still in service to Satan.
• No one seeks out God's footsteps
• or His appearance.
• None desire
• His care and watch of them.
• But they're willing to
• depend on the evil one
• to adapt to this world and its creeds.
• And man's heart and spirit
• fall into Satan's hands,
• and become
• the food on which it feeds.
• They become
• the food on which it feeds.
• II
• See the human spirit and heart
• now a place where Satan dwells,
• where it plays as it wants.
• Human understanding fades away,
• no more seeing their
• purpose and worth,
• what it means to be human,
• no longer seeking God,
• hearts ignore God's covenant
• and laws.
• As time passes who can tell,
• who can understand
• why God created the human race?
• No one comprehends
• the words from the mouth of God,
• or can realize all that's from Him.
• They begin to resist
• all God's decrees and laws;
• deadened hearts and spirits
• soon follow.
• Thus God loses man He made,
• and man's root is lost.
• This is humankind's tragic sorrow.
• Here lies humankind's tragic sorrow.
