Read the Writing on the Wall

That God created nature    
Can be proven by her anger  
Feel the heat of her temper    
See the firestorm tornado    
Hear the hurricane thunder    
   
God is furious for what    
We have done to this Earth    
A creation she provided for us    
A gift wonderful and precious    
    
We've polluted the rivers    
Seas and inland waters    
Turning them into    
Gigantic putrid sewers    
   
We have even corrupted    
And contaminated    
Her fertile terra firma    
And life sustaining atmosphere    
   
We've defiled and desecrated    
God's emerald cathedrals    
By clear cutting forests    
And burning the jungles    
   
Read these signs of nature    
And know that God is angry    
She is so very angry    
That God may replace us    
With stewards that are more worthy    
   
For just as the prophet Daniel    
Begged King Nebuchadnezzar    
To Read the Writing on the Wall    
Like the Kingdom of Babylon    
Our shining city on a hill    
Will certainly fall
