Hebrews
The Letter to the Hebrews Rhymes
God spoke through prophets, now the Son
Through whom the whole world was begun
He is the radiance of God
The divine substance in a pod
The cleansing of our sins is He
Enthroned beside the Majesty
"Let all the angels worship Him."
"Your throne," says God, "shall never end."
"The earth and sky in place you've lain
And when they perish, you remain."
His message we cannot ignore -
Salvation, which God underscores
Now everything beneath him placed
For everything, death he did taste
He calls us brothers, Jesus does
As we are tempted, so he was
So dwell on Jesus, he's the best
Superior to all the rest
For Moses, honor is in store
The builder of the house gets more
Don't let sin's lies draw you away
Exhort each other every day
For faith in God is great relief
Accept his rest through true belief
The Word of God, a flaming sword
Not one thought can escape the Lord
We must give an account to Him
He knew temptation, but not sin
As priest, atonement he does bring
And like Melchizedek, a king
You must move past the basics still
And God permitting, soon you will
But those who turn and fall away
Will in the end have hell to pay
To taste the gift, then leave the Name
Subjects the Son of God to shame
But you have better things to come
God made a promise, count it done
About Melchizedek the priest -
Was king of righteousness and peace
A priest not by the law ordained
Perfection not by law obtained
So of this order, Christ's priesthood
It meets our needs, for he is good
By oath, his priesthood does not end
Forever on Him we depend
The better covenant is new
He serves the tabernacle true
No longer shadows shown in parts
He'll write his laws upon our hearts
The earthly place a symbol for
When God would open up the door
Draw near to God with hearts sincere
With faith assured and conscience clear
Together and with hope proceed
Provoking love and loving deeds
If, knowing truth, you still choose sin
What dreadful trouble you are in
Instead stand strong with confidence
Enduring treasures you have hence
Do not shrink back and be destroyed
Have faith, then life ahead enjoyed
Now faith is hope with certainty
It's proof of what we cannot see
By faith we know that God declared
And all existence was prepared
By faith a better sacrifice
Did Abel give, got paradise
By faith did Enoch please the Lord
You must believe to get reward
By faith did Noah build an ark
And onto righteousness embark
By faith Abraham up and went
He knew not where, just he was sent
By faith did Sarah life receive
Though past the age, she did conceive
By faith these lived and then they died
Believed what God said, he'd provide
They felt as strangers on this earth
God's built a home, much more it's worth
By faith Abraham passed a test
High stakes - to God he acquiesed
By faith did Issac bless his kids
By faith then Jacob, Joseph's did
By faith then Joseph did discuss
What would become the exodus
By faith a Levite man and wife
Defied the king, saved Moses's life
By faith then Moses chose God's path
Chose Christ and feared not pharoah's wrath
By faith they walked by water wall
By faith they watched Jericho fall
By faith then Rahab helped the spies
And thus did not meet her demise
By faith some went on great campaigns
By faith some, too, endured great pains
With such examples, cast off sin
And run your race as if to win
Your eyes on Christ who makes you whole
You won't grow weary in your soul
When hardship comes, then think within
"This is God's love and discipline."
He teaches those He counts as sons
Though in the moment it's not fun
We're stronger once drills we've withstood
He disciplines us for our good
Now live in peace not bitterness
Don't live for sex or godlessness
You've not come to a mountain dying
With fire and brimstone, terrifying
You're at the city heavenly
That's filled with joy and men made free
Be locked into God's firm domain
So when he shakes, you will remain
Be glad you're in the kingdom higher
Our God is a consuming fire
Keep showing hospitality
Avoid all immorality
God won't forsake or disappear
He helps you so you've none to fear
Be mindful of the ones who lead
As they behave, so you proceed
To teachings false, though, do not stray
Christ is the same on every day
He bore disgrace and so can we
Our future home we can foresee
So praise the Lord, do good, and share
Heed those who lead your souls with care
The God of peace make you complete
To do His will, fragrant and sweet
God spoke through prophets, now the Son
Through whom the whole world was begun
He is the radiance of God
The divine substance in a pod
The cleansing of our sins is He
Enthroned beside the Majesty
"Let all the angels worship Him."
"Your throne," says God, "shall never end."
"The earth and sky in place you've lain
And when they perish, you remain."
