The Father

Written By: D. Collins 3/21/16
I live by the laws handed down to all men.
Long, before there was anything called Christian.
If you crossed The Father, He may smite thee.
The same characteristics He passed down to me.
I believe in His works. He's never steered me wrong.
He laid down the specifics that made me strong.
Believe only in Him and have eternal life.
Avoid so-called Prophets telling many lies.
The Pharaoh knew it, along with Moses, too.
Don't mess with The Father, and His angelic crew.
He doesn't play games, or gives a second chance.
He allows you one time to stand as a man.
