Text Talk

What if life is a battle ground
We fight for faith and for voice
And the world itself is turned against us
In unpredictable formation

Near impossible to stand our ground
Against relativism and realism
They shoot us down with facts and stats
Leaving us arguing on a hope

Prove that God exists, they jeer
Then find “real” explanations
About how miracles are “science”
And “science” makes much more sense than
“miracles”

But why should we believe
The world is made of atoms so small
They are intangible—yet are made of
Nuclei and electrons and protons

And not believe that there is a God
Who created us on purpose, for a purpose
And knows our names and our faces
And cares enough to create
Things that we can see

But no, they argue
An accident, a coincidence
A meteor hitting the face of the rock
That is now Earth

Because that is more believable

But no, they go on
If there was a “God” who was “Good”
Why would there be
Pain and suffering

You people, you “Christians”
Have been persecuted and killed
And mocked by science

Why would someone with that power
Let someone like “Satan” thrive
And let there be hurt

Over the hill, comes the reply
There lies a land
Untouched by human eye
A land that we call perfection
And we get there by Choice

Ah, they counter
But there is no such place
Science has proved nothing of the sort

My friend, “science” has been here
For just a handful of years
When God has dated back
Before the world began

Of course “science” hasn’t proved anything
Yet

Do you really think that so many would die
For something as absurd as “God”
If He didn’t really exist

Do you really think it’s easier to believe
That people give their lives
For something that “might” be real
But in truth, is only an illusion

Think outside the boundaries
Think outside of science
Think to the girl whose life has
Shattered

A million shards stored in a locket
Close to her heart
A hope that she can no longer
Cling to

It is intangible
But it is there

And she hopes and she prays
For God to answer
But He doesn’t
At least not in the Voice she expects

So you drop your hope
Prove that He doesn’t exist
Or doesn’t care
But really, you’ve just looked
In all the wrong places

His answer isn’t a Word
It’s something harder to prove wrong
It’s a real, tangible person

It’s just that you can’t see her
Because God doesn’t do “publicity”
Like your science does

Because He has nothing greater than Himself
To prove wrong
