The people together, and make them God's own;
But I have an inkling that God would much rather
We gather ourselves; not like seeds to be sown
But livestock to pasture, or people to freedom
More self-motivated, more ready to go
Aware of our hungers and eager to feed 'em
Not crops that the sower must gather and sow.
For God can most certainly sow as God wishes
(And make things spring up that were never before
Like the insects, the water, the land, and the fishes,
The light and the darkness, and so many more)
But the point of our lives is not passive obeying
But living the life that itself is our praying.
