Christ has been raised from the dead, The first fruits that fell asleep; A resurrection being fed, For followers of His sheep. For as by a man came death, Man resurrected from the dead; Given new life and new breath, Awaken out of his bed. For as in Adam all die, Through Christ be made alive; From earth will be saying bye, Unto Heaven will arrive. But each in his own order, Christ is being the first fruit; Will be passing the border, Paying the Lord a tribute. Then comes the end of the earth, And delivers the Kingdom; Now gone to allow new birth, The Father uses wisdom. Authority and power, Putting foes under His feet; Although not knowing what hour, The last foe will have defeat. God puts all in subjection, Under His feet a footstool; If they have a rejection, To God and His golden rule. When all things have been subdued, Then the Son is subjected; Reign of His kingdom be ruled, His followers adopted. Copyright ©2022 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
