Let's Rhyme


There was to be a realignment of time;
A time to be freed from the ties that bind.
Many things were both 'in and out' of line.
There was a top secret of the most divine kind, 
and no one heard it through the grapevines.

No mortal knew the details of God's grand design.
Who would pay the penalty for the greatest crime?
Did mortals think they could stop the sunshine?
Did the devil rejoice as his demons dined?

He came into a world that was in deep decline.
The concept of love was to be totally redefined.
In due course, there would be no doubt, no denying.
By believing in Christ mankind would cease from dying.

There was a miracle that turned water into wine.
It would not matter what was written on a sign.
Millions over time would change their minds.
None would be hanging from the end of a rope.
The most hopeless would be infused with hope.
All could be free and no one needed to be left behind.
