Betty Harp Butler Poet Free verse

Death

O Death, where is thy sting?
O Grave, where is thy victory?
The sting of death is sin,
And from sin I’ve been set free!

Grave, you will not win in the end,
Though I am buried and covered from sight.
Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ,
I shall awaken and come forth to new life.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on resurrection through Jesus Christ to a life in the New Jerusalem. Betty Harp Butler July 30, 2016 at 2:11 PM Thank you Reason.
