There is a God


There Is a God by Wes King

Well, I plan on being here for a long time,
Watching you grow up, and watching you fly away.
I plan on crying at your wedding,
And saying goodbye to my little boys
And hello, nice to meet you, to the men you’ll someday be;
Growing old with your mother and hold her hand all the way,
Falling in love with her every single day.
And should I die before you wake,
There is something I would want to say.

Love life with all your might.
Love peace but be willing to fight.
Love beauty and train your sight.
And nurture your appetite for beauty, goodness and truth.
Be strong and be brave.
Believe and be saved, for there is a God.

Be men of faith and courage: a little crazy, a little bold.
Seek to find your mission. Fear God and fear not men.
And believe me when I tell you—oh, I wish you only joy.
And if you wish to find your life, you must give it away.
And when you die, you will wake in the arms of the One
You pray your soul to take.

Love life with all your might.
Love peace but be willing to fight.
Love beauty and train your sight.
And nuture your appetite for beauty, goodness and truth.
Be strong and be brave.
Believe and be saved, for there is a God.
