They Wrote It In A Book

by Deborah Smith Plemmons © 2019

Moses wrote it in a book,
Of Creation to the Promised Land,
From the Fall to a time of rest;
Wrote God's Laws at His command.

Joshua wrote it in a book,
Of battles; some won, some lost.
God was important in his house;
They chose to serve Him at any cost.

David wrote it in a book,
The Psalms: of poetry and song.
He praised God with other authors,
And told of what was right and wrong.

Isaiah wrote it in a book,
Jeremiah to Daniel, prophets of old.
They warned of coming events;
Some prophecies are yet to unfold.

Matthew wrote it in a book,
Along with Mark, Luke, and John.
The Gospels tell of Jesus Christ:
His birth, life, death, resurrection.

John wrote it in a book,
Of God's love and salvation.
He, also, wrote of brotherly love,
And Jesus Christ's Revelation.

Paul wrote it in a book,
Letters to churches and men.
An apostle to the Gentiles,
Shared with us God's sound Doctrine.

Many others wrote it in a book,
Minor prophets, individual men;
The Old and New Testaments
For future generations were given.

God spoke and they wrote it in a book:
The Bible; on it we can depend.
Words of history, the future, of peace;
The greatest truths that were ever penned.
