919 God’s Creation Should Obey His Authority
Verse 1
God’s a consuming fire who won’t stand offense.
Man has no right to interfere or critique
His work and words, they must obey them,
because man was created by Him.
Chorus
God is the Lord, the Lord of creation,
using His authority to reign over His people.
All creatures should obey it,
do what He asks with reverence,
should not reason, not reason or resist.
Verse 2
Though you’re bold, presumptuous, disobey God’s words,
He meets your rebelliousness with tolerance.
He will keep His temper, carry on His work,
not caring about maggots writhing in dung.
Chorus
God is the Lord, the Lord of creation,
using His authority to reign over His people.
All creatures should obey it,
do what He asks with reverence,
should not reason, not reason or resist.
Bridge
God puts up with all He loathes
for the sake of the will of God
until His utterances are complete,
until His very last moment.
Chorus
God is the Lord, the Lord of creation,
using His authority to reign over His people.
All creatures should obey it,
do what He asks with reverence,
should not reason, not reason or resist.
