What Did Jude Have To Say

Believers, I write YOU concerning Our Common Salvation
To exhort YOU, to contend for The Faith, that God’s Will be done
The Faith, which was Once for All, delivered to The Saints, look out
For certain men creep in unseen, who long ago were marked out
For this condemnation, ungodly men, turn The Grace of God
Into lewdness and deny Jesus Christ, and The Only God
But I want to remind YOU, though YOU once knew this, that The Lord
Having Saved the people, out of the land of Egypt, Our Lord
Afterward destroyed those who did not Believe, and the angels
Who did not keep their proper domain, but left fallen angels
He has reserved in Everlasting Chains, yes, under darkness
For The Judgment of The Great Day, as Sodom fell in darkness
Also Gomorrah, and the cities around them, chose poorly
Who gave themselves over to sexual immorality
And gone after strange flesh, are All set forth, as an example
Suffering The Vengeance of Eternal Fire, quite painful
Also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority
And speak evil of dignitaries, their deception We see
Yet, Michael the Archangel, in contending with the devil
When he fought over the body of Moses, spoke quite artful
He dared not bring against him a reviling accusation
But the Archangel said, The Lord Rebuke YOU, and rightly done
But these speak evil of whatever they do not know , which is much
And whatever they know naturally, like brute beasts and such
In these things they corrupt themselves, woe to them, for they have gone
In the way of Cain, have run greedily, each used as a pawn
In the error of Balaam, for profit, and yes, they perished
In the rebellion of Korah, is where so many perished
These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with YOU, without fear
Serving only themselves, they are clouds without water, it’s clear
And carried about by the winds, late autumn trees without fruit
Twice dead, pulled up by the roots, raging waves of the sea, not cute
Foaming up their own shame, wandering stars, for whom is reserved
The blackness of darkness, Forever, reaping what they deserved
Enoch, the seventh from Adam, Prophesied about these men
Behold, The Lord comes with Ten Thousands of His Saints, for these men
To execute Judgment, to convict all, who are ungodly
Of all their ungodly deeds, they have committed, they shall see
Committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things
Which ungodly sinners, have spoke against Him, ungodly things
Grumblers, complainers, walking by their own lusts, causing damage
They mouth swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage
But YOU, Believer, please remember The Words which were spoken
Before by The Apostles of Our Lord Jesus Christ, God’s Son
The Apostles told YOU, there would be mockers, in The Last Time
Who walk according to their own ungodly lusts at that time
Sensual ones, who cause divisions, not having The Spirit
Oh, but YOU, Believer, keep praying in The Holy Spirit
Building yourselves up on your Most Holy Faith, confidently
By keeping yourselves in The Love of Our Lord God Almighty
To Eternal Life, by The Mercy of Our Lord Christ Jesus
On some have compassion, making a distinction, like Jesus
But others save with fear, yes, pulling them out of the fire
Yet, hating their garment defiled by their fleshly desire
Now to Him, who’s able to keep Us from stumbling, YOU and me
To present YOU faultless, before The Presence of His Glory
With exceeding joy to God, Who Alone is Wise, Our Savior
To God Be Glory and Majesty, Dominion and Power
To Everlasting Life, now and Forever, Amen, I pray
Jude, bondservant of Jesus and brother of James, writes this day
