I said GGod I do not understand this world
Emeverything is dying and Gbroken
Gwhy do I see nothing but CsufferiGng
GGod I'm asking could this be Your plan
EmSin has taken hold of this whole Gland
GWill You not say anything else Cto Gme?
He said Gwhere were you the day that I measured
Dsunk the banks and Amstretched the line over C
Call the earth and carved out its corner Gstone?
GWhere were you the day that I spoke and
Dtold the sun to sAmplit the night open C
Ccaused the morning dark with its light to Gshow
GWho shut in the ocean with stone doors
Dmarked the reach of Amtides on those new shores C
Chung the day the waves rose and first broke Gforth
GHave you seen the springs of that great sea
Dwalked the caverns Amcarved in the black deep C
Cthrough the gates of darkness there on its Gfloor
GHave you seen the armoury i hold
Dsnow and hail are Amstacked up in silos C
Cfor the times of trouble and war and Gstrife
GCan you raise your voice to the storm cloud
Dwould the thunder Amanswer and ring out C
Cdoes the lightning ask you where it should Gstrike
GWho has cleft the channels for torrents
Drain to sprout the dAmesert with forest C
Cin the wilderness that my hand has Gbuilt
GCan you hunt the prey for your lions
Dcan you use the Amcords of orion C
Cis this whole world bending beneath your Gwill?
I Dspoke of things I did not Cunderstand
things too Emwonderful for Dme
Dalthough I had no right to Cask
my God Dknelt and answered Gme
