The Second Coming of Christ

Matthew 24:24-31

There'll arise false Christs and prophets,
That will merely be Satin's little puppets;
Showing great signs to lead you astray,
Misleading you with thoughts to disarray;
I want to forewarn you before it's too late,
Before you are meeting a disastrous fate;
If someone says that He is in the jungle,
Believe not or in their web you'll entangle;
For as lightning comes out from the east,
Or even the west watch out for the beast;
For so shall the coming of the Son of man,
As it was already told to you in God's plan;
Where a carcass lay, the eagles will meet,
For ripping open the flesh and start to eat;
The sun will darken with the moon no light,
Heaven will shake as stars fall at night;
Then the sign of the Son of man will appear,
As all nations on earth will mourn in fear;
With the Son of man coming from a cloud,
As His angels play a trumpet call aloud.
