Son of The Lord, Son of Most High
Son who brings Love straight from the sky
Lord of my life never shall die
Lord who will keep you by and by
Wake up old, dusty Church of God
Before you're struck down by The Rod
The furnace is burning
The lions are roaring
There's blood dripping from your hands
You sorry sons of the sand
Time to get life right with The Lamb
Or forever burn with the damned
Thief in the night, thief of the day
Thief who comes to lead you astray
Lord of the night cowers the day
Lord who comes to destroy God's way
All religion is blastphemy
Against our Lord God Almighty
The furnace is burning
The lions are roaring
There's blood dripping from your hands
You sorry sons of the sand
Time to get life right with The Lamb
Or forever burn with the damned
The furnace is burning
The lions are roaring
The mountains are moving
The oceans are rising
Hypocrites are dying
Cause they keep on lying
On what side will you stand
When Christ comes back to land?
Oh...
The furnace is burning
The lions are roaring
There's blood flooding from your sins
You mud-covered filth of men
Time to join forces with The Lamb
Or perish with armies damned
There's blood dripping from your hands
You sorry sons of the sand
Time to get life right with The Lamb
Or perish with armies damned
Time to join forces with The Lamb
Or forever burn with the damned

Well Done
Your poem is well done. Though most people may not notice it but you used Biblical references in your two reapting lines. My suggestion is to try to make your next poem just a bit less repetitive. -
Great poem. Thank you very much for entering. GOod luck and GOd bless.
-

Good work, Poet!!
-
I see that there are a few changes. Good for you.
I am supposing there is a lyric in the make.
Thank you for letting us know. It still reads like a lyric!
-
Oooh! I like. These lyrics have a lot of stopping power behind them. Good, strong force, complete with tons of really vivid imagery. I commend you on the command this song has. If music were martial arts, this would be krav maga.
I don't know about you, but I felt this would be a great metal song. I just feel that a song with such intense and dirty lyrics needs the power of metal.
-
well written excellent write. filled with emotions of the soul. vivid imagery that wakes the mind. thank you for sharing your amazing talent. keep writing poet! God bless you always
-
God chastises his own. Otherwise, how will we know the difference to whom we belong? Guilt -driving is counter-productive to a restored soul or soon-to-be-redeemed.
In this poem, I see the shadow of those words from the Bible.
*A suggestion*
Since love always is first from God, I would juggle the lines in the first stanza.
Wake up old, dusty Church of God
Before you're struck down by The Rod
Lord of the night cowers the day
Lord who comes to destroy God's way
Thief in the night, thief of the day
Thief who comes to lead you astray.
I know first hand that Love never
inhibits, but leaves the darkness at its
hind.
I thank you sooooooo much for sharing this piece.
Warmly...CookieZeal

This is amazing. The imagery is strong and the message is powerful. This was quite an experience to read.
Well penned,

bold and courageous to do....
and it always serves a wakeup reminder,
that we can not wash the sands of forty years
wandering thru the deserts of time....
with unclean hands.
the fact is ; they don't know how...and they watch
endless news...so they fear...the darkness of truth.
UNITL "it"
whatever it is horribly
happens to one of their flock.
ears/Seattle
perhaps this new government change and the emptiness
of their pockets will inspire past fear.
let's all hold on for hope!
thankyou for the courage it took to write this
bold poem.
