Tell Me Why

Why do you blame Me
For what the devil’s done to you?
I’m accused for everything,
But there’s nothing I ever do.

Why do you blame Me
For not giving what you pray?
How can I give a blessing
If you push Me away?

Why do you blame Me
Because your body isn’t healed?
When you're bitter toward Me,
How does that make Me feel?

Why do you blame Me
For your struggle and lack?
The devil steals, kills, destroys,
Yet I'm the One you attack.

Since the beginning of life,
I’ve fought against the curse;
But every time the devil comes,
I’m the One blamed first.

Your words pierce My heart.
So much, you don’t understand;
Why point your finger at Me?
I miss the friendship with man.
