If God Would Go On Strike

 

If God Should Go on Strike 
How good it is that God above, 
has never gone on strike 
because He was not treated fair 
in things He didn't like, 

If only once He'd given up and said... 
That's it! I'm through! 
I've had enough of those on earth, 
so this is what I'll do... 

I'll give my order to the sun, 
cut off the heat supply! 
To the moon, give no more light 
and run the oceans dry! 

Then just to make things really tough 
and put the pressure on... 
Turn off the vital oxygen 
till every breath is gone! 

You know He would be justified 
if fairness was the game. 
For no one has been more abused 
or met with more disclaim. 

Then God, and yet He carries on, 
supplying you and me, 
with all the favors of His grace, 
and everything for free. 

Men say they want a better deal, 
and so on strike they go, 
but what a deal we've given God 
to whom all things we owe. 

We don't care whom we hurt 
to gain the things we like, 
but what a mess we'd all be in 
IF GOD SHOULD GO ON STRIKE!
