Get off the Devil's Train.....(1)

    Get off the Devil's Train.....(1)

You feel you’re trapped with no escape

Afraid you hide from sight

Thinking of death, hell’s flaming lake

Of darkness, Truth & Light

 

Although you know what’s right and wrong

Satanic ways so well

You love to sing the devil’s song

And dance as you rebel

 

You’re full of want of wanton sin

The world is void of love

You need The Holy Ghost within

The living Christ above

 

From life you’re on the devil’s train

On Satan’s plane in flight

Going too fast to bear the strain

Towards the darkest night

 

While Satan bound you feel alone

Your house is built on sand

You should embrace God’s Corner Stone

Life’s truth to understand

 

Try Jesus as your Lord today

Bid wisdom reign inside

The Holy Ghost to show The Way

As Counsellor and Guide

 

Like arid grass, husk empty wheat

Midst thistle thorn and tare

Your life will fail to be complete

Without God’s Promised Share

 

Have ears to hear pray eyes to see

Be planted in The Vine

Eat Heaven’s Bread of victory

While drinking true life’s wine..…P.T.O.....

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.
