THE SPIRIT STRIKES HERE
Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)
THE SPIRIT STRIKES HERE
Your Poetic Messenger is here
This time I'm crystal clear
My words will never falter
Because I lay them on the altar
Stop hissing, you old snake
Do you see the burning Lake?
Soon your soul will be on fire
Lifting God's name ever higher!
Come see where the mighty fell
From the highest Heaven to the deepest Hell
Devil what a fool you are
You were once the Morning Star!
Among the Angels you were a king!
Dude, you had everything
You just threw it all away!
For this darkness you betray?
Corrupting the Church's steeple
Deceiving God's own people.
How many Prophets and Saints did you Kill?
Teaching the earth to obey your will
The Blood of Saints on your hands!
Your destruction justice demands
You fool, you had it all!
Look how far you fall!
Once an angel, beauty renown
Now a snake crawling on the ground!
Now your war is over and done
You're defeated by God's Son
There was never really any doubt
So I shout an Hallelujah Shout!
You bow before the Lamb's sorrowful gaze
Judged by the Holy Ancient of Days
All your foes look silently on
He speaks a word and you are gone
This rhyme is Crystal clear
The Holy Spirit just struck here
AMEN
