How Marvelous

How Marvelous

A touch like no other
God’s power is not like another
who gave the earth a special space
as He set the moon and stars into place
the sun to shine no darkness to remain
while He created the animals and the rain.

Took forth woman from man
for these creatures had a glorious plan
whose life existed by God’s hands,
a man to name life by His command
in came the serpent to Eve with his lie
Adam and Eve live now on the earth to die.

Sin then came in to devour
Jesus came to prevent its power
sent down from heaven to earth,
where the angels gave praise for his birth
born as a babe to live and exist as we do
becoming sin’s sacrifice to atone for you.

He came forth to set free and change,
now events have started to rearrange.
It’s time for Jesus to come back and return.
Are you ready to depart it’s time for concern!
It might be at noon or even the month of June
at the twinkling of an eye, it could be that soon!
