Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

There shall come forth a shoot,

From Jesse, out a stem;

A branch that bears a fruit,

Restore who are condemn.

The Spirit of the Lord,

That shall rest upon him;

That cannot be ignored,

Having spiritual vim.

Understanding wisdom,

With the counsel and might;

To revere His Kingdom,

For knowledge and insight.

For His delight shall be,

In the fear of the Lord;

Pure of light that you see,

To be in one accord.

But He shall never judge,

Being seen by His eyes;

Decide without a grudge,

Hear disputes to despise.

But judgment He shall seek,

Righteously on the poor;

Equity for the meek,

Spreading from shore to shore.

For He shall strike the earth,

With the rod of His tongue;

His lips showing true worth,

With the words being flung.

Righteousness as His belt,

In girding up His waist;

Faithfulness will not melt,

Punishing the unchaste.

Wolves shall dwell with the sheep,

The leopard with the goat;

Together they will sleep,

Placidness shall promote.

In that day it shall be,

A sign for the people;

As hostility free,

A life, plain and simple.
