I am stirring your sincere mind,
Pure minds by way of remembrance;
To remain as humble and kind,
During a time of encumbrance.
You should remember predictions,
As made by the holy prophets;
Of the Lord through benedictions,
Ensuring what each one inherits.
Scoffers will come in the last days,
Following sinful desires;
Walking after lusts as one strays,
Whatever pleasure requires.
The promise of His arrival,
Ever since that we fell asleep;
Not aware of their survival,
From the beginning like the sheep.
They are willingly ignorant,
Purposely overlooking the fact;
Of becoming intolerant,
Anyone that would counteract.
The earth was formed out of water,
Through water by the Word of God;
The land not having a border,
As all creatures honor and laud.
That by means of these on earth,
That then existed had overflowed;
Deluged to perish from their birth,
From existence of their abode.
The Heaven and earth that exists,
By the Word stored up for fire;
Till the Judgment Day that enlists,
Death of ungodly desire.
This one fact do not overlook,
For a thousand years as one day;
As with the Lord that one day took,
Like a thousand years to obey.
The Lord is not slow to fulfill,
His promise as some count as slow;
Be patient with God and His will,
Wishing that the blessings will flow.
Wishing that no one should perish,
Rather everyone repent;
Because life is what we cherish,
Appreciate as you compliment.
