JESUS SAW YOU FALLING

BY

Laura Lee Christian


Oh howling dragon
spitting out your venom
I wonder how many worthless ages
you have spent
smoldering in the darkness of your heart
your light has gone out
your once bright light is doomed forever
to eternal darkness.
You are deceived in your bloated ego.
God made you Lucifer,
the brightest of all the angels,
but in your foolishness
you chose to be like God.
When you were light
you cared and had compassion,
you would have served God
and did His bidding,
if He had asked you to protect me
you would have been full of love
and kept me from evil.
But now you are evil,
how you long to kill and to destroy me
because you have no love,
when you left God you lost all love
you lost everything that is good.
You have spread your poisons and stench
through the centuries of mankind
you have maimed and spilt innocent blood
you have led men to accuse God of your awful deeds.
A pit awaits you, and after that
eternal fire,
eternal fire,
for the one who deceived himself,
Adam and Eve,
nations and kings,
and led men away from their life source.
Yes, fire awaits you,
fire awaits you,
the eternal judgement
of the eternal God.
One man has conquered you oh dragon
one man
not a strong man oh dragon
not a man clad in armor and steel
not a man held in great honor and respect
by his generation
not a man famous or rich
not a King, governor, or ruler during
his time spent on this earth.
No, oh dragon,
you have been conquered, yes,
but by a poor little babe,
wrapped in swaddling clothes,
and lying in a manger,
by the poor carpenter of Nazareth
Jesus, was his name.
Is his name familiar Devil?
The name of Jesus?
The everlasting eternal name
that will haunt you throughout eternity.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
the simple mention of that dear name
burns your ears.
In fact, you can't bear to hear it
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
the torturous name 
to your scared ears
scared from hearing so many Christians
say it,
to rid you and your evil deeds.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.
How red was His blood that was spilt
and how red is His blood
that protects our heart's doors,
and the red streams of blood
that streaked down His back
paid for healing for all mankind,
for "by his stripes we are healed".
SO how does it feel to be worthless
awaiting your doom
you who were the "Son of the Morning"
the day star, but you fell as lightning
and Jesus saw you falling.
