God commands that we submit, to the Authority of Government,

But to obey God over men, when their ways He would condemn,

When man’s law contradicts, the understanding of God’s Edicts,

So we’re to pray with holy hands, for the leaders of all the lands.



We must consider in the past, when Judgment by God was cast,

He would raise up a leader for, Judgment which He’d soon pour,

And all the law God had ordained, for all believers still remained,

God’s Divine Laws meant to protect, to this day, all God’s Elect.



Even as Israel fell from the Lord, His Law was not to be ignored,

The living under a wicked king, for His own, changed not a thing,

For God’s people were to obey, The Lord, their God, all the way,

To God’s honor and His praise, to be God’s Light in darker days.



With darker times ahead for us, in our God we must put our trust,

Who can change the heart of man, to stop even the darkest plan,

By fervent prayer to our God, He can alter paths the wicked trod,

As their wicked ways He frustrates, by means no one anticipates.



We must submit to all authority, with obedience to God a priority,

Whoever The Lord permits to rule, even if a leader plays the fool,

With man’s foolishness in place, sufficient for us is God’s Grace,

For we know their Foolishness, will fall to Christ’s Righteousness.
