Prepare Yourself (2) Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Till in this life the battles won
We’ll need to spread the news
That all receive God’s Living Son
Or have the choice to choose

To speak of God’s eternal will
We first must know The Way
Man unprepared, can cause much ill
Cause tender plants to stray

We can’t continue running wild
God’s will we must pursue
Until the lost are reconciled
We’re still a scattered few

We must know how, to plough the field
To scatter seed abroad
To irrigate until the yield
Is increased by The Lord

Knowledge, to propagate the earth
Through faith life’s war to win
To truth, we need to give first birth
And end all personal sin

Not few who’ve said salvation’s mine
Christ’s blood has set me free
Have thrown their precious pearls to swine
Who’ve turned and made them flee

God’s armour now we need to wear
His word to make us whole
His Light to shine with love and care
His Flame within the soul

We’re not to play the devil’s fools
His fruit continue yearn
While disunited, havoc rules!
And Christ will not return…
