The world is on its death bed

And

All hidden things

Shall now be made seen

Prepare yourself

For

A grievous thing

 

Make yourself aware of

The earthquakes

Storms

`Hot and cold weather

Volcanic eruptions and the raging seas

The gates has been open for pestilence and poverty

 

Prepare yourself

For

A grievous thing

 

The hour has come

And your hearts will fear

The Shock of the hour

Is very near

It’s coming to your home

It’s coming to your town

The walls of that mysterious Babylon are coming down

 

A wise man will storeth his food

And teach himself to pray habitually

Cause the things that you see and experience will make your soul

Grieve

 

Prepare yourself

For

A grievous thing

 

Streets of war

Streets filled with blood

 

No justice

No peace

 

No clean water

No food to eat

 

On that day men will appear drunken but they will not be drunk

And all with child will lay their burden down and flee

 

Prepare yourself

For

A grievous thing

 

The church will no longer be a safe haven

Cause it will be the first place the Devil will flee

And he will attempt to pull all down to his side

And in the fire you will abide .

 

By the time surely

Man is in lost

Cause he refuses heed the words

Of those whom came before thee

 

Clear arguments

Were made to be understood so plain

but the message we did not want

We tossed it aside

Cause in our heart we said

“This is the past and it does not fit me this is the 21st centenary”

 But I summit to you beloved that God does not change and

As it was in the time of Lot

So shall the end be

 

Prepare yourself

For

A grievous thing

Thanx for that poem, it speaks well of the times, indeed a grievous thing to behold.....
