lyrics

If God is just and you are upright
then call on Him
Though your beginning is small
the end will be better

Look to the former age
What did your fathers know?
We are of yesterday
a shadow that passes away

Can the rush grow up without the water
cut down before its time?
Like the godless hope
of fragile faith in a spider web
He leans upon his house
but it will not stand
Like the roots, grass, but a heap of stones
and they will say I did not know you

You will laugh again
This is the joy of his way
out of the dust, others may spring
