Analysis of Bottom Line: God’s In Control Now

Brittany Wilson 1988 (Milwaukee, WI)



Relatives in & out of hospitals,
Posers take love & kindness for granted,
Families torn apart to confetti-like shreds,
Bottom line: God’s in control now.

Mortgage past due,
Job loss all around the world,
Statewide food shortages,
Bottom line: God’s in control now.

Pollution in the air,
Wreckless people worldwide,
Broken bones on the sidewalk,
Bottom line: God’s in control now.
