Persevere Through Persecution Poem by Bernard F. Asuncion

P-ersevere through persecution
U-ntil the end of time;
R-ace of life you must finish
I-n victory so sublime.
T-hreats truly may come, to test your faith and composure;
A-s long as you trust in God, certainly you can endure.

E-xpect the false accusations,
S-aid by your faith's enemy,
C-all on the Father above,
A-sk Him to make you steady.
L-ies that are thrown at you
A-re fabricated by the devil;
D-o hold on to the truth,
A-nd fight the foe's ill will.

F-ourth morn in April,
L-ife and strength are yours;
O-ne new page is turned,
R-eading is another course.
E-levate to the highest level of your determination;
S-oar toward triumph, braving the hostile horizon.

A-ll the aches let your eyes
S-ee the Lord's promised land;
U-nder His true loving care,
N-ew glory comes from His hand.
C-ry not because of pain,
I-nstead smile with conviction;
O-vercome the harassment,
N-eed to persevere through persecution.
