Jesus Christ

Of the first man’s disobedience, mankind fell Through one man’s valour, mankind infallibly rise From perpetual annihilation through Gates of Hell Into the eternal ecstasy of the Promised Paradise Long ago, the Serpent his senile stratagem had begun To deprive Adam of the satiable Garden of Eden Out to terrace the Earth, to thresh beneath the Sun Lest, Man attains the supreme height of Heaven But the Sovereign Father who knows far omniscient Had foreseen this doom ere its appointed season Prompted by His humane heart came Christ omnipotent To redeem Man of Lucifer’s high treason      Nothing worldly did Him befall      It is this unbroken faith that save us all.
