Amy Winehouse
Popular singer
Battling with drugs
Booze and blues
Found dead suddenly
Gone in the wind
At just 27
Such a tender age
Cut off at her prime
She had a great future ahead
But now snuffed, killed,
stolen destroyed
give the devil and inch
and he will take a mile
let him make a crack
and he will make a gap.
You cannot walk with God
and run with the devil
the fool says in his heart
‘There is no God.’
The devil pretends he does not exist
He blinds and binds with booze
Money, fame, drugs, people worship.
He uses you to destroy you
Uses you till you are useless
Then he dumps you
And welcomes you to hell
Where you will have
Nothing but weeping
and gnashing of teeth
But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”Matt8:12 -22:13
Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 24:51
Mr Winehouse said: "Amy was about one thing and that was love. Her whole life was devoted to her family and her friends and to you guys as well. We're devastated and I'm speechless, but thanks for coming."
Winehouse battled drink and drug problems throughout her career and news of her death was quickly followed by suggestions that it could be related to one or the other. The troubled artist had cancelled all tour dates and engagements last month after a series of erratic public appearances. She was booed at a shambolic performance in Serbia.
