Waiting for Christ

Isaiah 9:5-7

Every boot of the warrior sound of his step,
As clothing rolled in blood for battle prep;
It'll be burning being as food for the fire,
As insurgents are attempting to conspire;
Taking place just as a child has been born,
To us a Son is given a sign for to forewarn;
As government been place into His hands,
To oversee all the people in all the lands;
He to be called Wonderful, Prince of Peace,
As a Counselor for making wars to cease;
Almighty God as well as Everlasting Father,
Be considered to everyone as their Brother;
Increasing His rule of peace having no end,
While on the Throne of David to be a friend;
Henceforth within His established Kingdom,
Judgment to reign over all with His wisdom.
Waiting for our Lord and Savior to arrive,
So that a reign of peace starts to strive;
Come Jesus Christ take your rightful place,
For shining upon all of us with your grace.
