Who’d not wonder why?
But Noah built a boat.
No sign of a plight,
No water in sight,
But Noah built a boat.
And through the task ‘cross many years,
Perchance through mockery and tears
Noah built a boat.
Would I?
Who doesn’t like to think they’d be like him,
Not giving in to the devil’s taunting whim?
Could I?
Stay the course through toil and travail?
Stay the course sans worry of fail?
Not in and of myself;
Not with God put on a shelf.
Dear Heavenly Father, I need Your hand upon my head, for of myself, I’m limited in what I’d do for you, but in the Holy Ghost I’d find your power. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
