Poetry

---

Not everyone has believed,
The Good News of salvation;
And they still have not received,
Their eternal foundation.

Who has believed the message?
For faith comes from the hearing;
Which needs to encourage,
In honoring and fearing.

For the message that is heard,
Which was spoken by the Christ;
Written in the Holy Word,
On why He was sacrificed.

They act as they never heard,
The message spoken by voice;
And it was merely rumored,
To lift up hopes and rejoice.

The voice of the messengers,
Have gone out over the earth;
And looking for challengers,
Not believing in rebirth.

Into the entire world,
And to the ends of the earth;
For the plan has been unfurled,
In showing of its true worth.

Did Israel understand?
What the message was about;
Is it rock or sinking sand?
Why do they still shed a doubt?

I was found when I was lost,
But no one was trying to search;
And being saved at all cost,
Being needed by the church.

No one was asking for me,
When I became manifest;
They opened my eyes to see,
For starting my holy quest.
