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 orders

to the sun — cut off

the heat supply!

And 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 disdain,

Than God, and yet

He carries on, supplying you and me,

With all the favour 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.
