Testing Just Testing



Can ought impart the joy within my heart?
A streak of light breaks through the darkest night
Are You at last satisfied Lord
That those You died for in this world
Were given the knowledge to be free
And even challenge Your Majesty?
How dark, how dark the world became
When mankind forgot from whence we came
Freedom that was so freely given
Has all but us into total destruction driven!
At last You send a streak of light
A scientist has been heard to declare
The chance that by Divine intelligence we are here
" Even so,ID may support theistic belief"
So speaks a scientist to Your great relief!
