Some people do not understand,
The messages prophets have sent;
They are stepping on sinking sand,
No matter what kind of intent.
For they have completely ignored,
The message about God does save;
By putting their faith in the Lord,
As to not condemn to the grave.
The people who use to live here,
And their rulers never did know;
Who Jesus was also the fear,
Neither of the heavenly glow.
They did not know when strangers read,
Every day during worship;
So they condemned Jesus as said,
And had cut their relationship.
Even though that they could not find,
Any good reason to kill him;
They wanted to ease their own mind,
So they not be feeling as grim.
When they finished all that they could,
They placed him out onto a boat;
Left it drift like a piece of wood,
On the open sea it would float.
But the Lord would not let him sink,
And for many days he appeared;
Those who exiled him did think,
His ghost has come to haunt they feared.
God floated him back to the shore,
He testified as still alive;
With the keys to Heaven's front door.
A son of God he was to thrive,
