How can a good God allow evil?
The question is so often asked
Now that we have such enormities in our recent past.
Maybe HeÕs just a prime mover
Maybe HeÕs not there at all
Maybe heÕs gotten disgusted and sits staring at a wall
Or maybe he canÕt make a difference
Maybe heÕs just ineffectual
If so, you may be disillusioned if he fails to resurrect you all.
But I – I believe in free will
I think we can chose our own way
And so I think we can blame only ourselves, at the end of the day
Ourselves and each other, if we are called to account at the end of the day.

I admit it: Satan tempted me to do it. In this case, he was masquerading as that
rhyme in the third verse.
