The Time is Near

I wrote this last night with a great sense of urgency. I don't know when He will rapture His church, but His bride has to be ready.
I know this poem is a little broken and the rhythm is poor, but it was almost like God was guiding my pen.

***

Bride, bride, get ready

For the Groom comes as a thief in the night

Newsflash and journalists, all reporting the same thing:

“Millions have just disappeared—in the blink of an eye.”

Go back to the days of old,
Noah tried to tell them, he did

But life went on;
Parties, feasts and weddings.

It will come again
Life will be as it always has, but then—

Bride, bride, get ready

For the Groom comes as a thief in the night

When the whole world is feasting and festive
(Remember the days of Noah)
Of course, what better time is the world distracted,
Celebrating the time of His birth.

Bride, bride, get ready

For the Groom comes as a thief in the night

Take heed, be aware, and repent of your sins
He is coming, like a thief in the night,
And the time is drawing near.
