The Hornets of Hell

THE HORNETS of HELL The hornets of hell swarm from their nest Overwhelming all the victims they can. To sting as many souls as possible In their destruction of the glory of man. They murder, rob, rape and plunder While provoking the meek to submit. They lie, deceive and mislead And depend on the world to forget. Eager to enhance their numbers They are the cheerleaders of disgrace. Their agendas of sin must be stopped For the betterment of each race. Endless is God’s test of time To measure man’s spiritual worth Unwholesome deeds tempt us all Festering in the repugnance of earth. The hornets of hell are on the hunt In all directions by day or night. The Armor of God shields man’s soul And gives us our resolve to fight. The champions of heaven in rapture await To see who will stumble and fall. They watch us struggle, in our world of woe As they pray we will heed, God’s call. Fools declare we must hide from view And leave the hornets of hell alone But when we ignore the liabilities of life The failings of man become, our own. By Tom Zart
