Will You Attend..... Poem by Michael P. Johnson

We're blaming God for our failings
Man's wants and needs on earth
Though with backs against life's railings
Grace offers man new birth

To change, to live in sweet union
With peace with joy unknown
Partaking awesome communion
Around our Father's throne

But when money's not one's worry
Where comfort's common place
Who when thriving, thinks to hurry
To seek Salvation's grace

Granted to all who enquire
How can man's troubles end
Attain all one's desire
From man's almighty friend

We'll shake our fists when times are bleak
When plagued with sores, with pains
When troubles come, its God we seek
To take or break death's chains

God's blamed; for all our troubles
Each burden, each defeat
All our sufferings our struggles
Each dilemma we meet

Rarely, we'll take a look within
Regard one's precious soul
Study the consequence of sin
Obstructing true life's goal

Is God to be blamed for sending
His only Son to die
For love's banquet joyful attending
With Heaven's King on high.....
