The Wicked Prosper ~

Sometimes I don’t get,
why evilness prevails
how souls every day
it tempts and compels.

I don’t understand,
the wicked things people do
but, God I do know . . .
none of it comes from You.

Sometimes I don’t get,
why the wicked prosper
how they keep getting
in this world stronger.

I don’t comprehend,
the evilness they do
but, Jesus I do know . . .
they don’t follow You.

Sometime I don’t get,
why evilness dominates
but, God I do know . . .
how the devil operates!

Jeremiah 12:1-2

Righteous art thou, O Lord,
when I plead with thee:
yet let me talk with thee
of thy judgments:

Wherefore doth the way
of the wicked prosper?
wherefore are all they
happy that deal very
treacherously?

Thou hast planted them, yea,
they have taken root:
they grow, yea, they bring
forth fruit: thou art near
in their mouth,
and far from their reins.
