Scoffers Take Heed

A gut full of grease is a glutton for greed A swirling cesspool of sinful man's seed These men of corruption, a pitiful breed They trust their own hearts, which deceives them indeed Prey for the fallen and wicked to feed Who whisper with promise to fill man's each need They scoff at God's promise, those depraved will not heed They mock every word in God's Book when they read Rejecters of Truth, in which mankind is preed They have no fear of Christ, Who shall judge every deed He Who gives man the breath for his life to proceed He alone, in strict justice, shall perfectly meed He Who casts into hell, by His Word, whence decreed He Whose anger, and fury, and wrath shall exceed All the strength of His creatures, who must there ever dreed He Who mocks, in derision, all the damned as they plead He Who laughs as they weep and they wail to be freed He Who kindles the fire that shall burn every weed Reprobate beings shall become as a glede The bread of the leaven He shall thoroughly knead He Who bled as they jeered shall then jeer as they bleed When He smites with His iron they'll remember the reed They'll remember His cup, that accursed Ganymede He forsaken of God that the veil should be screed He Who endured that redemption succeed He Who for sinners was made sin, to accede For sin, and the Devil, and death to impede The powers of darkness were forced to recede As did that legion of swine once stampede When Jesus returns riding 'pon a white steed Armies of angels and saints shall He lead Open your ears and your eyes and take heed Do not let your heart be a stone when you read The Word became flesh, as the God-Head decreed Son of God, Son of man, incorruptible Seed A Savior for every sinner in need Son of man, in the flesh, come to weep and to bleed Son of God, Bread from heaven, to heal and to feed Christ Jesus, the Son, that He might intercede To reconcile God with the chosen to be freed He Who the Son frees shall be free indeed
