Wonder

Dear God, 

 

I wonder. 

 

Are you just a civil servant? 

They say that you do as we pray

But then, of course

I serve you too

And I suppose there are rules I obey 

 

Still, with all of this serving

We give just as much as we take 

And our gifts are not love, only wanting 

And beneath this need

We all break

 

And I wonder 

What it is that we're giving 

For all that I hope to believe

I've given everything and nothing

I wonder what you hope to receive
