Choosing and Losing

I believe that God is the great creator
        That His Holy Spirit is the great revelator
But when God had finished doing all He can
        He brought His great creation to His created Man.

For it was Adam that chose each individual name
        And what Adam called them they each one then became.
So God gives to you and me the events of His own choosing
        What we call them they become -- of winning or of loosing.

Take each thing that comes you way Being very careful what you say
Each time you meet it you will find it will be the product of your mind.

Take pain and problems when you meet them now
        Call them opportunities and they will change, somehow.
Do not call them tragedies, wretchedness or loss.
        Do not call them heavy burdens nor your dreaded cross.

I can not explain the way God works nor will I even try,
        I only know He promised to wipe the tears from each eye.
I have no power to stop Godıs will (how foolish that would be)
        But I can choose to "Kiss the Son" for He always walks with me.

I once believed that God would send, by His divine decree,
        All those souls He had not chose into the flaming sea.
Since He knew what will happen to every one He made
        I thought how wrong it was and I was quite afraid.

But God has given man a choice and each man must decide
        This decision he must make before crossing the great divide.
For when he sees the face of God he will surely want to flee
        Calling for the rocks and mountains to cover a wretch like he.

But all of those who in life chose to come to God in prayers
        To love His Son, the only one, who really truly cares.
Who forsook their sin, a new life to begin, until by God's grace,
        Drawn to Him where there is no sin as they see His blessed face.
