From Genesis To Revelation Poem by Denis Martindale

From Genesis To Revelation



When Adam named each living thing, as he was told to do,
He saw that some could fly and sing. 'Why can't I do these, too? '

He saw some creatures burrow down beneath the earth below
And this new puzzle made him frown, 'Where do such creatures go? '

He saw the sun, he saw the moon and stars that filled the sky.
'Why does the sunshine go so soon? ' Such riddles made him sigh.

So many questions filled his head when he was all alone.
He closed his eyes and dreamt instead with answers still unknown.

When Eve arrived, he saw her face and welcomed this new start.
This miracle had proved God's grace for prayers within his heart.

But Eve, beguiled by Satan's lies, led Adam's heart astray
And from their Earthly Paradise, these two were led away.

The Bible says that all have sinned. We live, but then we die.
For by God's laws each soul is pinned unless God's grace comes by.

Thus Jesus died as Easter shows - His life's blood sacrificed.
His righteousness pays what each owes and so we trust in Christ.

Believers preach what we've been taught. God blesses every word
That says how Jesus Christ has brought new life as our shepherd.

God's revelation comes to you - like prayers that fly to Heaven!
The most important thing to do - believe, so you're forgiven!

God blesses those who turn in faith and trust the King of Love!
He promises each soul is safe, forevermore above...
