Get off the Devil's Train.....(2)

   Get off the Devil's Train.....(2)

Just like a deer in a snare

Or spider’s web, a fly

As fools still sinning everywhere

 We’re trapped until we die

 

Unless we leave the devil’s boat

Board ship from Satan’s realm

Seek Heaven’s help to stay afloat

With Jesus at the helm

 

Refuse to be in hell’s employ

Turn to The King supreme

Let’s fight in love for peace and joy

Beyond our wildest dream

 

It’s time to see the facts first hand

Through light God’s Way to see

To take account to understand

With whom to fight and flee

 

Get out of Satan’s car my friend

Take firm in hand life’s Wheel

No man can see what’s round the bend

Until to Christ we kneel

 

Through Jesus’ blood through birth anew

Through grace in Jesus hand

We need to keep God’s Son in view

Towards The Promised Land

 

Arise forthwith from Satan’s bed

Shake off the devil’s chain

Consider Christ God’s Lamb instead

Who died to take man’s pain

 

Get up and walk God’s righteous path

Take heart in Christ and thrive

In Jesus’ care flee Heaven’s wrath

And always stay alive.....

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.
