Analysis of Some of Your Creation
Sarah Rayan 1982 (Kuwait City)
They fear the tides as they ascend, but if they knew, the one I defend, only you, can raise them again, these wolves running around, howling all over town
If you only love some of your creation, how did you bless every nation, defeat every temptation, and the serpents who hiss, I know these arms you missed
All of my wardens dressed like sheep, can't hold me back, or make me keep, feeling attacked, or lose sleep, as I swim to land, walk, run, but first, stand
If you only love some of creation, you wouldn't have blessed every nation, I've been listening to every station, to hear the voice I defend, until he loves me again
