Politically Incorreect

Politically Incorrect

 

Has death the right to wear a crown?

Has Satan right to reign?

Did Love not tear these kingdoms down?

And give us hope again

 

Though knowledge grows in flowing streams 

Though man has conquered space

To most, salvation’s childhood dreams

Heaven a fabled place

 

Demonic ranks persist to grow 

Religion seems divine

While churches argue to and fro

Partaking bread and wine

 

Has darkness brought again our fall?

Has faith and wisdom flown

Should not the church heed Heaven’s call?

Should Christ not claim His own?

 

“Politically it’s incorrect”

“We’re not to say such things”

Is this the call to God’s elect?

Christ’s bride of priests and kings

 

How sad the worldly eye’s so dim

Her hearing’s grown so weak

Her children’s grown so cold to Him

Of whom the angels speak

 

Let’s lift the name of Jesus high

Stand true in one accord

Rescue our neighbours ere they die

To glorify The Lord

 

Let’s read again the book of acts

Consider all yet lost

Reveal to them The Truth and facts

Regardless of the cost…..

About the Poet
I never wrote a word of poetry in my life. Till the day Jesus took my hand and touched my soul.....I invite your response. However most poems are not about me! Very few are. But the feed-back good, bad or indifferent is always desired. Not meant to offend, but I write about many things in many a guise. Of life, death, lost, found, saved, backsliders, new comers, repenting souls, doubting hearts, heathens, Christians, fire, water, Satan's daughter, wallowing in sin, saved, made sound walking in Light, graceful righteous. Suffering, ecstatic, bored, excited, sad, delighted, Sick, well, lame, able, living, dying, etc. etc. etc. Writing about anything, everything and everyone as the spirit leads. All meant to reveal, waken, revive, encourage, shame, help. Gladden, pick up, exalt, portrait, liberate. Again over 99% of my work is not about me. Although at times I write as though I were or am. Speaking e.g. in the first person. This is quite common even in the bible itself. Prophets speak of themselves, then God speaks, again the prophet, then God......Quite often it's difficult to distinguish whom it is that at any given time is speaking or narrating.
