Come Hither

Don't lose hope when all seems to fall down around you, for God will be there to comfort you when you need him the most.

Come hither all you weary people
To where the sky meets the ground
There you'll find a man who sacrificed Himself
On a wooden cross
To atone for humanity sins,
We who didn't deserve his mercy
He came back to life on the third day
So death has no mastery over Him
He died so we could be forgiven,
He was born to a virgin mother
Who give birth to Him in a manger,
He gathered around twelve disciples
Who He told to go forth and multiply
'Spread the words that I teach you,
To those who are in need of a spiritual rebirth.'
He told them 'You'll be casted out to the wolves
And you'll be beaten for what you preach,
But do not worry,
For when the time is right
My Father will come down
And bring vengeance to those who oppose.'
So come hither all you weary people
To where the sky meets the ground
There you'll find a man who sacrificed Himself
On a wooden cross.

[His Apostle]

I think you basically summed up the New Testament. I like your poem it gives courage and hope

[Sascha]

Thank you, and I didn't really think about that, (how my poem sums up the New Testament). And I'm glad you like my poem.
