Trusts based on quicksand

[Continuing the hymn-for-Sundays series]
Ideas and religions flourish,
materialism sways and soothes,
humanism evolutionary,
asserts that no-one, nothing rules.
Like Goliath each defies
truth of God, but based on lies.
Truth can answer all their falsehoods,
like a sword can penetrate
find the chink, the flaw, the error.
But many will not contemplate
that their chosen comfort, sect
has foundation incorrect.
And the crucial point is history:
Source of all came here below
demonstrated His divinity
told the truth so we many know
guidance, wisdom, and God’s love.
have a home beyond the grave.
Tune: 87 87 77 eg Gounod tune of ‘Let us love and sing and wonder’

truth
Truth has a way to all come spouting out all of it in a spectacular fashion like a shaken chamaigne bottle, as a river rushing headlong the sea, a wild horse, unstoppable. It always comes out, sooner or later.
We had a bit of trouble here over the weekend it's sorted now. I saw the doctor he is happy with both of us he says we look very well after each other, I said yes, that is how our father taught us "dis nie mooi as boeties bakly nie", little brothers should not fight. I always think of "Two little boys" the song by Rolf Harris.
By the way we haven't had any electricity loadshedding in South Africa for more than 100 I think maybe 120 days, and remember it's winter the demand is much higher. So that is very promising the government and private sector really climbed in there they are very realisic about it. It was certainly a crisis and it's not over yet.
The general elections are now over and we now have a government of national unity. Wonderful news! Anyway I'm digressing.
Hope you're well with the tooth and so. But your husband must just be a bit boring now that he is not doing mathematics anymore.
Nice poem! Just a bit academic I'd say ... All the best! & Nolan
