The Four Horseman
The Lamb slowly opens the scroll,
With seven seals upon it.
He opens only one of seven
but not to read a sonnet.
When flames shot across the sky,
The first horseman goes flying by.
Then the horseman approaches,
He is white and brazen.
Sent here to conquer,
every nation.
The second seal is broken.
The a Red horseman appears.
War and murder is in his eyes,
Soon we all will realize…
The third seal is torn and
with Scales in his hand.
The Black horseman spread famine,
Across the barren land.
The fourth seal was broken..
The wind whipped violently,
with no remorse.
Earth stands still
we all be there,
As Death rides
..his Pale horse.
Following him was Hades,
the Ancient ruler of hell.
He came to take our will to live
He came here out of hell.
They will be sent here from our Lord.
They need no introduction.
They are simply coming here,
to conduct their given function.
When the conqueror is conquering.
And War is close at hand.
Famine will spread quickly,
across a sinful land.
Then Death will be upon us
Do you hear him riding near?
Will you be able to say,
"I lead my life without fear."
Approaching are the days my friend.
We must stop and take the time.
To make our lives full and rich..
And together we will find…
Happiness is what it’s all about.
Can't bring those toys with you.
You’ll have no trouble when the day draws near..
God's faith will guide us through.
