Fools
The fool's smile
while their best plans are laid
With Faustian like covenants,
their cold blood, the wage
Wretched fingers reach to prizes
just beyond their grasp
While the foul dragon's deceit
exceeds their deflated lungs last gasp
.............................Deflated lungs last gasp
Misery loves misery
and that old snake lusts for company
As itching ears crave his dark lies
Man's wisdom betrays him
while hell accepts and engulfs him
And in his horror goes Satan's delight
..................................Goes Satan's delight
Abba's Truth was given
with the Word's wisdom delivered
Through simplistic and child like faith
Man's wisdom made foolish
by God's Love given freely
Through the blood covered
hope of His grace.... (Hope of His grace)
................................The Hope of His Grace
