JESUS' SECOND COMING, A CAUSE FOR OUR PRAISE.

 
Verse 1:  
The time is almost near,  

I know it cos I feel intense fear, right here.  
 
I mean the question is, “I’m I even ready…I’m I prepared?”  
 
are you?… Or are you just…scared?  
 
Torn apart and afraid that he won’t come for you,  
 
dumbfounded cause you think you would be left behind…and denied,  
 
Well… I’ve just got four words for you,  
 
WHERE…DO…YOU…CHOOSE?  
 
You know as beings, God has given us the free will to choose,  
 
It is our choices that determine whether we win or lose,  
 
whether we want to spend our eternity with the father,  
 
or to shatter our lives like seeds that fall on thorny weeds.  
 
It will never sprout, but instead, it is cursed and pierced till there’s a hole  
 
too deep for it to be filled, so eventually it’s left there for eternity  
 
till it begins to shrivel and rot deep down in the soil…no HOPE.  
 
Salvation ends for that seed, no one to meet its need.  
 
WHERE. DO. YOU. CHOOSE?  
 
Would you want to be a dry weed,  
 
that has been raked from the fresh grass and gathered at a corner,  
 
only to be thrown away into the burning furnace and never to be seen again?  
 
Or would you rather,  
 
be among those, that the farmer gladly chose because you were beautiful  
 
like a dangling rose.  
 
 
 
VERSE 2:  
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,  
 
Where there’s no fear there is…forgive me but…foolishness,  
 
and foolishness leads to downfall with no entry to His Kingdom.  
 
Let him who has eyes, see…let him who has ears listen,  
 
for he that came like a servant exclaimed…it is finished!  
 
Behold he has risen,  
 
for he came to seek and to save the lost,  
 
a sheep that was sent to the slaughter and now is forever our banner,  
 
why hide in fear when he’s right by your side,  
 
why feel ashamed for your sins when he forgives seventy times seven,  
 
don’t let the devil eat into your soul and deceive you with lies no matter  
 
how hard he tries…after all he’s the father of all lies,  
 
he never got a second chance to repent.  
 
That is why he possessed a serpent and deceived the first humans created,  
 
therefore, planting the seed of sin in every person...Unlike him,  
 
we have tons of chances to repent and confess…before….it becomes too late,  
 
and at the eleventh hour, salvation ends, so as your own fate.  
 
 
VERSE 3:  
I am coming soon…he said,  
 
coming to take away my very own to a place where there is peace,  
 
tranquility, sovereignty…where everyone can feel at ease,  
 
No one to question my, or your faith in Christ; for in his bosom there is joy…  
 
and…hope for the hopeless, privilege for the deprived, strength for the weak,  
 
freedom for the captive, rest for the burdened, comfort to the broken in  
 
Spirit, rewards for the righteous, martyrs, saints and all those who stood their  
 
ground despite the sound of death knocking on their door.  
 
I am coming soon…he said,  
 
a second coming for the cause of our praise,  
 
where every being, both great and small would raise their hands in praise  
 
to the highest, up up in the magnificent sky.  
 
Yes..yes…yes!!! The day is drawing nigh,  
 
and the devil knows it,  
 
he doesn’t want to go alone into the deep pit,  
 
so he is trying everything in his power to lower us down,  
 
To crush our spirit, feed us with lies and deceive us  
 
by disguising himself as the angel of light right before your very sight,  
 
No no no no no!!! We must fight with our might no matter how hard he tries to bite,  
 
For my goal, your goal…both our goals,  
 
is to deliver our souls to the one who made them.  
 
 
 
Verse 4:  
I believe in Jesus, the son of the living God,  
 
For his word is sharper than a two-edged sword.  
 
He…is coming again…a second coming that’s going to revolutionize our story.  
 
The question is…how is your story going to end?  
 
Would you be the protagonist that will triumph over the antagonist,  
 
or vice versa…Graciously end your own story to own your own glory.  
 
You know, it would be sad…if he appears once again  
 
and in the process of being judged for both our bad and good deeds,  
 
He declares to you that, “I do not know you,  
 
you are just part of the seeds that fell along the path,  
 
the seeds that fell on thorny weeds, the seeds that fell on rocky grounds”…  
 
One way or another you heard the message and did not understand it,  
 
So the devil comes quickly to steal and grab it away.  
 
You heard the message, and believed alright…but only for a while,  
 
You heard the message, but valued money and earthly possessions than God,  
 
so it all never sank deep to germinate and produce new seeds.  
 
Be the good seed, sink deep down into the soil and germinate new seeds,  
 
seeds that can be transformed to create  
 
wonderful beads and worn by its owner…forever.  
 
I believe in his second coming, a coming for the cause of everyone’s praise,  
 
And he…is coming very soon, sooner than we’d expect.[/font]
