    ►LYRICS - All Glory Be To Christ
    Should nothing of our efforts stand
    No legacy survive
    Unless the Lord does raise the house
    In vain its builders strive

    To you who boast tomorrow's gain
    Tell me, what is your life?
    A mist that vanishes with the dawn
    All glory be to Christ

    All glory be to Christ our king
    All glory be to Christ
    His rule and reign we'll ever sing
    All glory be to Christ

    His will be done, His kingdom come
    On earth as is above
    Who is Himself our daily bread
    Praise Him, the Lord of love

    Let living water satisfy
    The thirsty without price
    We'll take a cup of kindness yet
    All glory be to Christ

    All glory be to Christ our king
    All glory be to Christ
    His rule and reign we'll ever sing
    All glory be to Christ

    When on the day the great I Am
    The faithful and the true
    The Lamb who was for sinners slain
    Is making all things new

    Behold our God shall live with us
    And be our steadfast light
    And we shall e'er his people be
    All glory be to Christ

    All glory be to Christ our king
    All glory be to Christ
    His rule and reign we'll ever sing
    All glory be to Christ [x2]

     
  2. Get serious.

    What kind of a compassionate god creates living beings that eat each other?

    That's an interesting line of thought. It suggests a compassionate god would have created only vegetarians amongst humanity. Or vegans. And amongst animals just herbivores really.

    So what possible scenario does that suggest? -
    either no god was involved in creation,
    or that he was not a compassionate god,
    or that perhaps two gods were involved - one who was compassionate and created the herbivores and one who was not compassionate who created the carnivores?
     
  4. That would be my bet.
