In Isaiah forty nine, his praises were very wise
For he knew that he was honored in God’s eyes
The tribes of Jacob, God promised to restore
Bringing them back to where they were before
For the Gentiles, He will also make a light
His salvation would outshine any blight
God also promised His people, in Micah five
That from Bethlehem, a ruler would come alive
Israel would be abandoned until that time
But the ruler’s powers would be sublime
The people will then be able to live securely
For all the earth will His greatness then see
The prophet had a vision one night, per Daniel seven
He saw the son of man coming down from heaven
The son of man approached The Ancient of Days
And was given all authority and therefore praise
With sovereign power, God did Him equip
All people and nations did Him then worship
His dominion is everlasting and will not pass away
His Kingdom cannot be destroyed, forever it will stay
God used to speak through prophets, per Hebrews one
But later He sent His heir, His only begotten Son
“The Son is the radiance of God’s glory…and being”
He provided purification from sin, for all so freeing
And now He sits in heaven by God’s right hand
“Superior to the angels”, we all now understand
Based on "The One Minute Bible Day by Day"
So far, the Old Testament I have tried to convey
More than two hundred stanzas are now complete
The underlying stories are of course not obsolete
But now onto the New Testament I endeavor to go
In the hope that my knowledge continues to grow
Please pray that I manage to find rhyme after rhyme
I hope that you will enjoy them, if you have the time
