God's Mysterious Ways

Dedicated To: Adolfo Magallanes, Jr.

There is an old saying, I truly believe
That says God moves in mysterious ways
I always wondered why

How true the saying has evolved today
As nature reaps its wretched ways
Upon our troubled times

So now we have another storm
The gulf has brewed again
Her name this time is Rita

And death does ride her wake
Is this God's way of testing souls
Only he knows for sure

So prepare yourself, for what's to come
When Rita comes ashore
If it's his will that I should die

I ask dear God to forgive the sins
That reside so deep within

For when I enter my home in heaven
As God has washed me clean

Then I'll know the answer
To the old saying, I truly believe
