Poetry

---

Your mind must remain clear,
And ready for action;
Your confidence is near,
To heavenly passion.

Place all your confidence,
In the kindness of God;
Which is your best defense,
From evil that is flawed.

Jesus Christ will appear,
Again extremely soon;
You know the time is near,
When seeing the blood moon.

As children who obey,
Live not as in the past;
When you had gone astray,
Causing God to downcast.

You lived to satisfy,
Of your own desires;
As you would just defy,
What Jesus requires.

But because God called you,
You keep a holy life;
To be faithful and true,
As you endure the strife.

For the Lord is holy,
Since God is your Father;
As your One and only,
Which makes Christ your Brother.

As we sojourn on earth,
We keep living in fear;
And through a second birth,
We know that God is near.

God judges all people,
By all what they have done;
Stating in the Gospel,
Defended by the Son.

You have not been set free,
Having a worthless life;
Without payment to be,
Filled with toils and strife.

The payment that freed you,
Was the blood of the Lamb;
So that you can pursue,
Honoring the "I Am".
