Analysis of God’s Examination
God took away all my excuses
He subtract them one by one
Because He knows the hand He dealt me
He knows the victory has already been won
Troubles were just a distraction
The trials were not very long
Miseries were just there to remind me
To praise God and rejoice
Sickness was just a way to show off
God miracles power and His glory
As you listen to people sound off
Just remember all the bible stories
and know there is only one path
to take you to the gates of Heaven
Because only those who do the will
of God will be call up to meet Him
in glory.
