PASSOVER Paradise

You can’t get there without passing through The Garden
It starts from before the very Foundation of the World
And follows an innocent Lamb
Into a society of really two choices
Life or death amongst trees so fruitful
And vibrant and vast in capacity
Most to make you Blessed and Prosperous
One to bring you demise
Of knowledge of good and evil
Of animal skin covering
To bide the time set in motion
From one decision gone wrong

Then sorrow and loss from blood brother 
To brother’s blood crying out from the ground it was spilt on
And marks of vengeance carried with pride and ego
Until the cleansing of the world
From waters above and waters beneath
Rising tides of billowing seas
Reducing atmosphere and ozone cycle
Depleting the Paradise Lost

With firmament gone and the Great Eight standing
To replenish and multiply
With beast and birds of every kind
To begin again
But that went wrong when son mocked father
Insulting Creator and Judge
Then brother kept brothers’ secrets
And bore the Mighty Hunter of renown
Set out to avenge The ALMIGHTY
With Resen and Babylon and Egypt
They fell
And tongues were twisted, tangled
Confusion and corruption combusted
And violence gained ground once more

The winds of life passed through Moriah
With son and father walking in obedience
To capture the point of our redemption; drawing nigh
Then on to their descendants
Of third and fourth generation
Finding refuge in Goshen
Attached to the land of Egypt
Where on one night
Following the darkness of nine
An Unleavened Feast, of bread without yeast
The blood of an innocent lamb drenched doorposts
Tops and sides
Saving once more
And covering to carry 
A People to Promised Paradise

Sinai stood still and waited
To mark the mission of Exodus
Stones it gifted
To make the First Tablets
Establishing Structure and Law
This paved the way for KINGDOM Exploits
For Ark of the Covenant, Tabernacle and Temples
And Priest and Prophet and King
To clear the way for The KING of Kings

Then time moved with marching momentum
And slowed to one Upper Room in Jerusalem
Where SAVIOR and sidekicks spent one last evening
Before the greatest disturbance of time was dealt
Details of anguish and gore for The SAVIOR
HIS Blood crying out
On the hands of a people and their descendants
Stretching from Gethsemane’s Garden
To shouts of “Crucify HIM” on Moriah’s Summit
In a place called skull
Where The Most Magnificent Lamb of all
Lay bruised, beaten and bloody before the world

HIS Body prepared for The Sabbath of three days’ rest
For FATHER, For SON, For HOLY SPIRIT
And laid in Calvary’s Sacred Garden
In a new tomb that held HIM
Until the stone was rolled away
And HE became the FirstFruits of they that are asleep
The Resurrection and The Life
With ALL POWER in HIS Being

Hear The MIGHTY ROAR
Of The LION and The LAMB
The Stone the builders rejected
Has become The CHIEF Cornerstone
Sitting at The Right Hand of The FATHER
Showing exactly what YAHWEH is like
And showing YAHWEH what we are like in Truth
Giving us a second chance at Eternal Life
In a Society where the Soul of Man never dies
And where HE moves HIS People forward
Bringing Back the Beginning at the End
Passing through The Garden
That Beautiful Bridge to Paradise
