Poetry

---

The coming of the days,
As declared by the Lord;
For those who disobey,
His covenant ignored.

Listen as being told,
When He took by the hand;
Not like the one of old,
Of covenant demand.

This is what He will make,
As declared by the Lord;
Teaching what is at stake,
To be in one accord.

His teaching within them,
Write it within your heart;
So, He will not condemn,
If willing to impart.

For He will be your God,
You will be His people;
If you honor and laud,
Worship in His temple.

No longer will one teach,
His neighbor or brother;
For the Lord will outreach,
To soothe one another.

He will forgive your sin,
Confess what you do wrong;
He will cleanse you within,
So, pain does not prolong.

The One who gives the sun,
For the light of the day;
The moon will be the one,
That the night will obey.

Because the Lord of Host,
Makes the sea waves to roar;
As the breeze makes them boast,
Flowing onto the shore.

Heaven can be measured,
The earth below explored;
As each star is treasured,
Being in one accord.

Dead bodies and ashes,
Fills the fields after war;
As the army clashes,
Demolished ever more
