Behold I Am Making All Things New - Revelation 21: 5-8

On His heavenly throne far above
God Almighty makes His declaration
behold I am making all things new
so original with divine determination

God told the apostle John himself
to write down all that's trustful and true
for He is the alpha and the omega
eternally always been forever new

The greatest free offer ever known
God offers to the thirsty of heart
the spring of water of life for free
conquerers being truly set apart

As well as all this God promises
I will be his God and he my son
all of this is brand new and true
the sovereign God's plan to be done

But all who oppose God and His word
they have a different promise upon them
the lake of fire awaits those still in sin
God is holy and only the holy can enter in!

("And he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”  And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.  The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son.  But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”)
