TALE OF GOOD AND EVIL

A song of hope and realistic urgency......

 

Come gather round children

I’ll tell you a tale

Of mystical creatures

Behind a black veil

 

In a land filled with terror

Threat to mankind

Absent of mercy

No peace shall you find

 

Road filled with fruit trees

Forbidden to eat

Tempting aroma

With taste

Bittersweet

 

Dark figures lurking

Evil abounds

Spry fleshly pleasures

Vile

Profound

 

Money abundant

To those who fall prey

Selling their souls

In carnal dismay

 

Selfish intentions

Love lost to greed

Sulfuric horizon

Hellish indeed

 

 

Resistance is vital

To remain truly free

Blessed assurance

Holy decree

 

 

With eyes on The Lamb

Our Holy One

His judgment is coming

Nowhere to run

 

Listen

I pray

Flee now in haste

Defying seduction

Resistance when faced

 

Crucial decisions

Gut wrenching choice

Shout with the angels

Or silence your voice

 

The ultimate decision of life or death……..
