Tragedy strikes
You're horrified
Someone took ill
Or suddenly died
Lost your job
No other's in sight
Your child is bullied
And lost the fight
Your car broke down
Your appliances too
Betrayed by someone
You thought you knew
Blood pressure's high
Because of stress
A garnishment letter
From the IRS
You're gaining weight
Docs don't know why
In need of shelter
Can't afford to buy
Studied all week
Still failed the test
Completely exhausted
But unable to rest
Rumors have started
Marring your name
Your television dies
During the big game
Home foreclosed
Car repossessed
But your enemies
Seem to be blessed
...Blame God...
Is what you do
He's the reason
Things happen to you
...Or so you think...
As you curse His name
But maybe it's YOU
Who should shoulder the blame
But blame Him
If you truly must
And in someone else
Instill your trust
But you should know
And understand
That it may be Satan
Just playing his hand
Dealing you cards
To wreck your life
Causing you pain
And unbearable strife
The pain you suffer
May cut like a knife
But remember who died
To save your life
