On Martyr's Hill I'm climbing up on Martyr's hill To see the troops advancing still Upon the clay from which I came Of many sorrows, guilt and shame But time has yet revealed her hand When this was once a blazing land A land of joy, of peace and myrrh When every heart was moved and stirred To dance with songs of God's own grace And lived and strived in God's embrace Though sands of time have all erased The greenery that once was here The scenery that we held dear Still calls of Eden, yet I fear God's flaming sword that warns, "Stay Clear!" I'm climbing up on Martyr's hill To see the troops advancing still Upon the clay from which I came Of many sorrows, guilt and shame Conquered I hope in Jesus Name. -Lighthouse Bob |

Hi Bob, Gods flaming sword that warns, Stay Clear. Puts a chill up my spine. Although I cannot know the mind of God. I do believe in his wrath. War, a time of hitting bottom. A just God, a loving God, the one God. I think you have wriiten this poem so well. Thanks In the Spirit, Whippoorwill |
