Abel's Sacrifice?

I can remember my Grandma
Once back in time
Gazing out our window
When I was eight or nine
Got too thinking perhaps
If that moment rewound
Maybe her thoughts
Might even be found

And if I asked her to spare me
A future of pain
Would she pause to say
He'd already been slain?
Could she tell of His suffering
That all else is vain?

If God dwells
With the lowly
And His satisfactions
With the contrite of heart
You don't have to bet
There's got to be
A counterfeit?

Well I'm sure someone back there
Had solemnly proclaimed
The war of the ages
Over the mystery revealed
Abel's sacrifice
Or the spirit of Cain

So if you have plenty
Would you be broken?
Or if you have li'l
Will you cast you burden?

So come all ye saints-
An fall at His feet
Will it be Abel's sacrifice
Or the spirit of Cain?
All else is vain...

Inspiration-
Whenever our right becomes the guiding factor of our lives, it dulls our spiritual insight. The greatest enemy of the life of faith in God is not sin, but good choices which are not quite good enough. The good is always the enemy of the best".
