God Luck

How lucky we are to possess God's luck,
how little we appreciate our good fortune;
could evil not potentially run amok,
could we not be much worse off with our portion?

God made a world so beautiful, good and true,
He set His rational natural laws in order;
no matter how much sin we may pursue,
God always holds the bad within a border.

There is a reason for our lucky lot,
God is Himself so logical and caring;
it's no fun fancying evils we have not,
we'd rather bear those ills we share unsparing.

Should we not pinch ourselves we were created
by our good God, though unappreciated?
