To Reiterate the Gospel

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)



I am the only Light who shows     
When Darkness is around.
There is nobody else who knows
Since I am not earthbound!

I am the only Way for you
To have the afterlife.
You must have faith because it's true,
Regardless of your strife.

I am the only Shepherd that
Can save all of my sheep.
But you must pray and not just chat;                         
Or later you will weep!

I am the Resurrection and
You need not be afraid
Of death but take Me by the hand
To see the plans I've made!
