Who Is God?

I asked a king, who is God?
He said He's the king of kings,
I asked a zoologist, who is God?
He said He's the lion of the tribe of judah,
I asked a soldier, who is God?
He said He's the mighty man of battle,
I asked a tailor, who is God?
He said He's the alagbada ina, the one whose cloth is fire,
I asked an old man, who's God?
He said He's the adugbo ojo, the ancient of days,
I asked a gardener, who is God?
He said He's the rose of sharon and the lilly of the valley,
My God, what can't you do? Oh, you can do!
The God that can use an egg to crack a palm kernel,
Just to disgrace a stone,
The intensity of light emanating from him is beyond what Physics can explain,
His love for us is beyond what our emotions can comprehend,
He is a God with an everlasting throne.
