I think the suffering this time,
Is insignificant compared;
To the ones who perform the crime,
When the glory that has been shared.
For at this time, it is still sealed,
All creation eagerly waits;
When it is finally revealed,
Who will be coming through the gates.
Creation has been frustrated,
But it is not by its own choice;
By the one who orchestrated,
Having the hope as to rejoice.
No longer to die and decay,
Setting free from its slavery;
Cursed since Adam did disobey,
All from one common enemy.
The glorious freedom to share,
The children of God will possess;
Has been groaning having to bear,
The pain of childbirth and stress.
Not only does creation groan,
The Holy Spirit is a gift;
For removing the heart of stone,
In giving us a new uplift.
We groan as we eagerly wait,
For the adoption to come through;
Freeing our bodies from fate,
Of death that would comes upon you.
We were saved with having this hope,
From all sin being free and clear;
We already see and must cope,
In this life until time draws near.
