Church of Smyrna

Who should lead and who should follow?
I know this life is filled with peaks and hollows
Filled with dreams and filled with sorrow
A pain that can be felt until the end of tomorrows

Feeling trapped as my mind eases the pain
I need a leader whose pride is one that is not vain 
Its hard to keep faith
When persecution laughs you in the face

God wants blood shed for his covenant
A love to be shared like Jesus on the cross for us
You can swear on the bible but its what you do
To give you life up for a few

144,000 will give us power
To make a third of the world devoured
So if you really need to repent that’s your cue
To give your life up for a few

    read the rest of it espeacally the things that jesus said (mattew, mark, luke, and john) and the book of Hosea (which is about repentece) and daniel coralates with revaltions... also the book of Isiaiah is also about repentece, the furture, the sins of the world, and god's wrath upon the people
