The dragon stands near the ocean shore,
and a beast emerges,
It is given great authority,
and people worship the beast from the sea.
It has seven heads and ten horns,
One head seems to have a fatal wound,
but he recovers from the injury,
and people worship the beast from the sea.
Its mouth is like that of a lion,
Its feet resemble a bear’s,
It utters proud and bold blasphemy,
and people worship the beast from the sea.
The beast wages war against God’s people
whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life,
They will be led into captivity,
but they won’t worship the beast from the sea.
*This poem is based on Revelation 13:1-10.
