Serpents Sting

Serpents Sting

A Poem by PoetryofProvidence

Oh death where is thy Sting
who rulest over mankinds being
controls the grave a perfect Son
who resurrection for us won

Thou takest every man on earth
with sin which destroys us on our birth
whose reign held sway from Adams time
only one escape from this family line

For perfect Love is as strong as death
and Jesus life will regain us breath
will empty out he mankinds grave
from the sting of death he will us save

Within that time we'll see to choose
to keep our lives or to death lose
the first judgment has not yet come
where the bands of death will be undone

The keys of death to him God gave
from tombs and crypts will mankind raise
a resurrection to judgment or life
those who have done good or practiced strife

The serpent brought about this sting
and Adams fall dids't death to bring
every man in death does dwell
the common grave in error called Hell

Of the serpents poison we all drink
no afterlife of hell or heaven as many think
there is no life within the grave
eternal soul was lost when death God gave

When Jesus opens mankinds tombs
within that day our judgment looms
to him the Father gave power over life
and rule with him will be his wife..
