THE STORY OF JOB
LET US TAKE A FEW MOMENTS TO PROD AND TO PROBE,
AND EXAMINE THE LIFE OF A MAN THATS NAMED JOB.
THIS GODLY MAN WAS TESTED AND TRIED,
BUT AT NO POINT IN TIME WAS HIS GOD DENIED.
THOUGH HE LOST ALL HE HAD INCLUDING HIS WIFE,
THE LORD SAID TO THE DEVIL DO NOT TAKE HIS LIFE.
JOB LOST HIS WHOLE FAMILY AS WELL AS HIS CATTLE,
BUT AT NO POINT IN TIME WAS HIS FAITH IN GOD RATTLED.
