Is there a God?

Is there a God?
I ask this as the news plays;
How many murders everyday?
How many stabbing and shootings?
Is life God's sick game?

Is there a God?
As an old man yells in pain,
From weeks of cancer,
He will die soon,
Why put him through more days?

Is there a God?
When a woman holds her two young children,
Knowing that soon she'll die,
Knowing her children will be left alone,
Does God want them to cry?

Is there a God?
At a father's funeral;
While the vicar reads the prayers,
While the children cry,
The mother left alone,
Is there a God who cares?
