God’s Reason

I don’t know how to say it,
but somehow it seems to me
That maybe we are stationed,
where God wants us to be;
That little place we’re filling
is the reason for our birth,
And just to do the work we do,
He sent us down to earth.

If God had wanted otherwise,
I reckon he’s have made
Each one of us a little different,
of a worse or better grade;
And since God knows and understands
All things of land and sea,
I fancy that He place us here,
Just where He wanted us to be.

Sometimes we get to thinking,
as our labors we review,
That we should like a higher place
with greater things to do;
But we come to the conclusion,
when the envying is stilled,
That the post to which God sent us
is the post He wanted filled.

And there isn’t any service we can scorn
for it may be just the reason
God allowed us to be born.
