He lifted up his eyes
And beheld the beautiful land
It was well watered with a river
A perfect choice for this man (Gen 13:10)

He chose that land that appeared
So lovely to his eyes
While Abraham took the left overs
In God's will he (Abr) abides

Trusting fully in The Lord
For whatever lot he gives
Is what God's people must do
It is the only way to live

Although men may make choice
And cast their lots to see (Proverbs 16:33
The whole disposing is of The Lord
He is the "Powers that Be" (Romans 13:1)

"Lift up thine eyes unto the hills
From whence cometh thy help" (Psalms 121)
The creator of the universe
And this little planet where we dwell.

Gen 13:10
And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.

Proverbs 16:33
The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the LORD.

Romans 13:1
Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.

Psalms 121
A Song of degrees. I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
