Utter Blinding Darkness
This world suffers from original sin
David said in sin my mother conceived me
speaking of us all born into the world
showing the sin bias not to be free
But do we realise how inwardly dark we are?
for there’s no end point to this disease
left to itself it will worsen indefinitely
as temperatures decrease for a big freeze
Mankind is so blinded eyes are shut
heart so very hard solid it won’t break
mind is so foolish it can’t at all think
can anything be done? Needs earthquake!
The prospects are not at all good
as man goes from bad to worse
deceiving oneself prone to be deceived
walking the road to receive God’s curse
But thankfully God shows a way out
giving His son for man’s substitute
then light came upon their blindness
to receive Christ at Calvary’s foot
