solution for the recession

In this time of recession what shall they do?

For the governments of this world, they don’t have a clue.

They turn to one man, thinking he is the solution,

And forget about God who is the father of creation.

“See that you be not troubled

For these things must come to pass.”

Who has the solution?

The church of God you should ask.

Prophecies in the Bible are fulfilling.

In this time of recession

Only Jesus Christ can give healing.

The answer they seek is only in God,

But they turn to money, and that is so sad!

The economic crises were inevitable;

Who is to be blamed? Is it the devil?

Eternal Father, you are forever;

You alone have the power to make things better.

Restoration for all nations is only through you,

Jesus Christ our Savior, who died at Calvary.

We beheld remarkable Leviathan ascend-like a phoenix come from caliginous seas

stood strong and tall for all to see, symbol of strength and unity,

inaccessible scales his presumptuous pride, flaring frenzied nostrils glowered,

glared like gigantic torch on Miss Liberty-made each of us his oh so loyal bride.

An indulgent Babel to adore, one we really should abhor

When did it happen? What did we think?

swapped our motto In God We Trust-made it a byword and a stink

luggage laden with lubricity and lust

sold our soul to the two-headed beast to plunder and pillage

Pandora’s box it released-greed, carnage, corruption

a grasping for pleasure, power and cash, his job to seduce and devour

land of peace and opportunity-unsuspecting innocents

this mad monster from the sea.

Why a country so complacent?-Too late, too late vigilant

Oblivious to apocalyptic peril

till a sharp two-edged sword

pierced him through the breast for all to see

he fell down wounded into a crimson sea.
