Who's This Man

Ran inside the master's house
With these heavy words to shout
Mighty winds had struck
His children all had died

Fellow servants on my left
They had also told of death
The master tears his robe
Quickly shaves his head
He falls and says

"Blessed be the name of God
You can give and You can take away
Take away
Naked I came from the womb
Naked I'll return to dust one day
To dust one day"
Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong

Sores and boils follow next
I would tend to his distress
Now his wife draws near
And mocks my master's face
But he remains

Blessed be the name of God
You can give and You can take away
Take away
Naked I came from the womb
Naked I'll return to dust one day
To dust one day
Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong

And every day I thought he'd finally give up
But he did not sin, he did not curse the Father that he loved
How could he hold onto the sovereignty of God?
If it were I to be the victim surely I would doubt God's love
I would doubt God's love

Blessed be the name of God
You can give and You can take away
Take away
Blessed be the name of God
You can give and You can take away
Take away
Naked I came from the womb
Naked I'll return to dust one day
To dust one day

Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong
Who's this man praising God when all was gone?
For I would have cursed the One who did me wrong
