Unconquerable

“ ... In all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.” ( Rm. 8:37)

Unconquerable

Despite the boldness of the sun´s rays
Suffering blurs the creatures´ vision.
In the darkness, the horizont they gaze
Dawn, by captivity , is allowed no provision.

Down the cell , mortality holds life by fears
Death stands raping, sowing and reaping as hope is gone
While the Hidden One , found guilty of all tears
Outside, enfolded in a shroud of disbelief , waits on .

Yet, down the den, the slave sighs and whispers fling
The barren begets mighty warrior - dreams ignite
The beast is hurled through the bars , by her offspring
Darkness has brought forth the sons of the light .

Life, unconquerable, holds the pull of eternity
Frailty , under its orders, survives the attack of mortality.
