LORD IF I SPEAK MY CASE

"LORD, if I argued my case with you,

you would prove to be right.
Yet I must question you about
matters of justice.

Why are the wicked so prosperous?
Why do dishonest people succeed?
You plant them, they take root;
they grow and bear fruit.

They always speak well of you,
yet they do not really care about you.
But, LORD, you know me;
you see what I do,
and how I love you. Jer. 12:1-3
