God's Secret

God spoke to me in a fatherly voice,
and offered me the following choice.

If I would rather live, or die,
and whichever I choose, He'd like to know why.

I want to live! I said real loud.
Because you know, God, I'm really proud!

I have wife and kids, my family.
We're building up our family tree.

It starts with me, I must confide.
I had no father, but I survived.

You've screwed me over, many a time,
but I've come out on top, and am doing fine!

A bit disgruntled. He missed no beat.
I trembled, all the way down to my feet.

What He said just chilled my spine.
I've screwed over, no child of mine!

I've provided you a wonderful biotope.
Beautiful valley, beautiful slope.

Plants and animals to keep you filled.
They provide you clothing, when your hunger's stilled.

You can build shelter. Everything’s there.
In return, I desire only your prayer.

No one asked me if I'd like to be born,
as I was placed on this earth, in human form.

Don't you understand that I'm doing my best,
although, the reason I'm here, You keep suppressed?

Just let me know the secret You're concealing.
The reason I'm here, for me, it's appealing.

You really want to know why you were born?
The answer is rather simple, God said without scorn.

I am all that there is, and you are that too.
It doesn't matter, whatever you do.

With all of your senses, it's Myself that I see.
Without you, well, I cannot be!

Oh!
