What more can I say,
For time would fail me;
Faith conquers today,
Of deceit that you see.
The enforced justice,
Stopped mouths of lions;
From the false promise,
Of disguised demons.
Fire has power,
That needs to be quenched,
Stronger each hour,
If it is not drenched.
Strength comes from weakness,
And mighty in war;
As faith sees bleakness,
To fight evermore.
Women get their dead,
Who refuse release;
Revived after fed,
When the war will cease.
They start a new life,
Better than the past;
Without all the strife,
Life be ever last.
Others will suffer,
Flogged being mocked;
Christ not to buffer,
Since their faith, they squawked.
For they have been stoned,
And killed by the sword;
God had not atoned,
Not saved by the Lord.
They wandered like sheep,
Wearing skins from goats;
On the ground did sleep,
Ate honey and oats.
They are not worthy,
To live in the caves;
Since they are mouthy,
And as sinful slaves.
