The Helmet Of Salvation Poem by Denis Martindale

The Helmet Of Salvation



The Scriptures warn us of the war that good and evil fight,
That's why God's judgements must outpour if we don't do what's right.
Yet those God saves, by Heaven's grace, whom Jesus calls His Own,
Will one day meet Him face-to-face, in Heaven on His Throne.

For now, the Earthly war exists, yet God grants armour here.
So that each Christian soul resists, to conquer, not to fear.
The Helmet of Salvation's worn until the Devil's gone,
So every one who's been reborn, please put your armour on.

Without God's armour, lives are lost, our heads are fragile things.
In accidents, our heads are tossed. More injury this brings.
Salvation thus prepares the path, the road that we must take.
Sometimes to spare the aftermath that accidents can make.

If we must move at awesome speeds by land or sea or air,
Remember that each body bleeds, sometimes beyond repair.
So wear God's armour every day, no matter hot or cold.
For each of us is mortal clay, much weaker when we're old.

One careless act can harm our faith, regardless of the past,
Despite the decades we were safe, praised God and weren't downcast.
So safety first, then do your best, help others safely through.
God's armour proves we can be blessed, the rest is up to you...
