Liberty Decreed
We know that all things,
Do work together;
Through the love it brings,
Unto each other.
Those who God has called,
That are in His plan;
Are fully enthralled,
Like no one else can.
God already knew,
When appointing them;
Since the way they grew,
A spiritual stem.
That stem grew a leaf,
Looking like the Son;
With the same belief,
In accord as one.
The Son as firstborn,
Of many nestlings;
As others may scorn,
Cause strife on siblings.
What could separate,
Us from Jesus Christ;
Who did liberate,
From being enticed.
We are being killed,
Throughout our day;
As some are instilled,
In going astray.
We are thought as sheep,
For being slaughtered;
Putting us to sleep,
Then drawn and quartered.
Christ gives liberty,
In midst of troubles;
Through a victory,
When someone stumbles.
