Areopagus message to Athens, to all
Paul in Athens
His spirit provoked
at the idol-filled city
What does this babbler wish to say
the real babblers begged
To Areopagus he was dragged
From his heart the truth was spilled
the day to repent draweth near
God in heaven you must fear
God, the maker of heaven and earth
Not living in any man-made temple
Not served by human hands
not needing anything
But the giver to humankind
the breath in their lungs
The time and area to reside
and put in their hearts
the will to seek God
and be found by Him
that His praise they should sing
We are His offspring
But still human and not divine
Ignorant times were overlooked
But now the command is loud and clear
to all far and near
Repent
Judgement is coming by Messiah
Assurance of this we have
His Resurrection from the dead
Some listeners to his message believed
Do you?
(Acts 17:16-34)
