The Last Stand
Breathe,
O’ ye men of worry, doubt and
despair
Steadfast, we must hold, be free
Exhaust your hearts from every care
Breathe,
Let His grace embrace your lungs
For Redemption is won, be filled
with the Divine Air
Yea, Soldier of the true God
Do now, all that you can
For Death never sleeps
Leave behind the "surface noise" of
the city
To meet Him in the Fields wherest
the lion lays with the lamb
No, O’ man!
It is not ye, who like rabbits, will
tell me, an eagle, who I am
Your hands, wrinkled and old
And due to self, frozen in the cold,
unwilling still to let go
For it is not by our own doing but
by His Divine Hand
That we have the strength to walk to
our Eternal Home Land
Do ye have not Faith?
Do ye have not Hope in His Divine
Plan?
Fear not any longer
For as He would walk closer
I, too, once, due to self,..... ran
Nay, it is Faith which separate us
Away, we soar like eagles
Away, we soar like eagles
Yea, we must hold on to, unto the
very end
And when the whole world seemingly conspires
against us
Who will be able to say before Him
That he wast truly deemed a close friend?
For every eagle with his talons drawn
Must draw a line in the sand
And say I will not walk over to the
other side
I will hold steadfast, I will take
this Last Stand
1 Timothy 6:12
Fight the good fight of faith: lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art called, and hast confessed a good confession before many witnesses. My other Poems:
