The Saints Who Had Fallen Asleep, The Dead In Christ

Now from the sixth hour ‘til the ninth hour, there was darkness

Over All the Land, reflecting Believers mood of sadness

About the ninth hour, Jesus’ Life, He did freely forfeit

Jesus cried out with a loud voice and yielded up His Spirit

The Veil of The Temple, from top to bottom, was torn in two

The Earth quaked, the rocks were split, and the graves were opened, it’s true

And then many bodies of The Saints, who had Fallen Asleep

Were raised and coming out of Their graves, causing many to weep

After His Resurrection, They went in The Holy City

They appeared to many, probably even their family

God Almighty raised people who were dead, for this occasion

A preview for Believers, of His Free Gift of Salvation

God says, The Lord Himself will descend, from Heaven, with a Shout

The Voice of an Archangel, and The Trumpet of God, no doubt

And the dead in Christ will rise first, and then We who are alive

And remain, shall be caught up together with them, yes, alive

In the clouds, to meet The Lord Jesus Christ, in the air above

And thus We shall always be with The Lord, can YOU see God’s Love

Did YOU happen to notice a common point to this story

God’s overwhelming Love for His Children, Believers, like me

The Saints, The Dead in Christ, put their Faith, in The Lord Jesus Christ

They accept who He is, how He lived, and what He sacrificed

That after His Resurrection, He Ascended to Heaven

God’s Amazing Saving Grace, means our sin, He has Forgiven

May these two examples, give YOU Hope, and the Faith, to Believe

With God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit, what can’t YOU achieve

For each Soul, who accepts Jesus Christ, there’s rejoicing Above

YOU are Jesus’ Light upon the World, share God’s Message of Love
