The Latter Rain
Last name Aladon; first name Freatis.
I am here to talk because they hate us.
All the killing and violence in the streets.
Spreading their evil as far as they can reach.
Our ancestry may be different than theirs.
The color of their skin may not be as fair.
Is that a reason to kill and maim?
The whole idea sounds pretty lame.
It doesn’t make them better than us.
Nothing calms the blood rush lust.
Treat your neighbor as you would one another.
Were all human .Therefore, we are brothers.
The hate and the killing has to stop.
The evil cast off and left to rot.
The Bible points to a better way.
They hate The Word & what it has to say.
A ‘Bible thumper’ is hated most of all.
If they catch one, they have a ball.
But, the power of God can overcome.
Martyrs, or not, God is the one.
A time is coming when The Latter Rain
will fall abundantly and change the game.
God’s workers will go into their den.
Preach the word of God and come out again.
Many will be converted in a day.
Evil will be gone. Love will be here to stay.
It sounds impossible for such a change.
Like healing the sick or curing the lame.
All things are possible with God.
He speaks softly and carries a big rod.
Evil cannot stand in the presence of God.
Gang members will no longer be a mob.
They will cover the slums spreading God’s word.
It will be a message that’s never been heard.
Hardened criminals telling their story.
How they now love God and all his glory.
This day is coming. It won’t be long.
Then we will all sing a new song—————R. W. Johnson—–(2011)
