Children of Eternity

God gave a promise to us, that our children would be more than the stars in the sky He would give us life abundantly; multiplying and expanding without end, vast and innumerable will God's family be Children of eternity Be we have not all been faithful to believe this holy vow of promise Selfish desires possesses the wayward souls, careless pleasures are all some seek ... bodies addicted to sexual stimulations Unwanted seeds conceived in beds of lust are taken to the high priestess Noitroba, and placed on the sterile altar in her temple of death Drink the chemical poison, wither the life within Twice dead ... make the dying womb barren again Life was given unto them, but they, selfishly, refuse to give life to someone else Pleasure seekers, sex slaves Chained to carnal desires They love to indulge in acts of procreation, but they hate to taste of the fruit it produce They spit out the seeds Where are their children, where are their children's children? They possess no Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, a dry tree is their DNA spiritual makeup So many empty vessels containing no seeds of life The children of eternity will still sprout into existence, though some have tried to turn God's fertile truth into a barren lie God gave a promise to us, that our children will outnumber all of the stars in the sky
