When Seas and Oceans Dry

God’s word is here to read at will

Revealing truth so plain

The wrath that once was sent to kill

Will soon return again

 

Though countless hear Salvation’s call

Most turn their heads instead

But when the stars from Heaven fall

They’ll wish that they were dead

 

They’ll seek to hide in nook and crack

Refuse to kneel and pray

On these God too will turn His back

Just as in Noah’s day

 

Backsliders still who won’t return

Hear Heaven’s word unfold

Make no mistake you too will burn

When neither hot nor cold

 

That day will see the mountains low

The seas and oceans dry

When man finds nowhere else to go

He’ll look for God on high

 

Too late! Too late! God won’t relent

The Lord won’t change His mind

But when the wrath of God is sent

One’s death will no-one find

 

How dreadful then, that day will be

When Jesus calls His own

When devils from the pit are free

When man’s left all alone

 

God’s Holy Ghost, will long have gone

Hell’s loose in every land

Seek life today through Christ God’s Son

While still The Lord’s at hand..…

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.
