The Night Belshazzar Died
The night when Belshazzar seen
God’s writing on the wall,
He did not know that soon
Babylon would FALL.
This king who thought he was so
“awesome and great.”
Didn’t know that death soon
would be his fate.
“Eat, drink and be merry”
was the motto of the day.
But God had something
else to say!
The days of endulging themselves
in wickedness and sin,
Was soon to be destroyed
by their enemies within.
This life which for long
you have enjoyed,
Shall one day perish
and be destroyed.
Allow the “writing of God”
to reach your heart’s door.
It is for you that Jesus died for!
Don’t allow the enemy
to destroy your soul.
For Jesus loves you more
than you’ll ever know!
