March Madness Faith

March Madness makes me wonder who will win,
I hope I win, I do not want to lose,
the devil tries to win me when I sin,
 but in the last analysis, I choose.

March Madness shows some things can be won fast,
our problems might be solved by revolution,
but patient God knows how long some things last,
we may be sooner saved by evolution.

March Madness proves how much we win with heart,
and so with all my heart I run the race,
God waits, but He’s fast if I do my part,
my opened heart He’ll fill up with His grace.

If I have faith that all You say is true,
I’ll win fast, Lord, the game I play with You.
