This is my condensed form of the Old Testament and the New, telling some of God's miracles and how He worked through people He chose.

Should You Believe?

In the beginning,
God created the heaven and earth,
The miracles He's bestowed
Which He gave His worth.
Should you believe
In the greatness of creation?
Yes, you should
For it's written in summation.

The Bible says it's so
It is the word God gave,
In which for us to live
And for us to be saved.
Now listen close here
I will tell you these things,
Of the miracles He's shown
And the love He brings.

Remember the days of Noah
When he was told to build an ark?
The words came from God
In which Noah did hark.
God said it would rain
In 40 days and 40 nights,
He will flood the lands
Non believers will take plight.

Remember Sodom and Gomorrah
The city full of sin?
When God destroyed it
And told Lot, not to look again.
What about Moses
When, with his people, he did flee,
Where were they to go
But for God, to part the Red Sea.

Or when Moses heard
From a bush of Gods voice,
With its flame, but not consuming
In awe, he did rejoice.
Or when Moses went to the Pharoah
He presented his staff,
To show to the Pharoah
How it turned to an asp.

When he held two stones
And God made the commandments of ten,
The rules for mankind to follow
In which we tend to hasten.
Or what about Joshua
When he walked seven times forlorn,
Around the walls of Jericho
As he triumphantly blew his horn.

Or when God gave Samson
His strength to destroy Gaza,
When he was deceived by love
By a woman named Delilah.
Should you believe
A little boy that killed a giant?
David had the faith
Unto God he was pliant.

Did you believe in Daniel
When he was placed in the den,
Facing the danger of lions
With his faith, he did win.
Or what about the story
About Jonah, swallowed by a whale,
With Jonah's faith and belief
God saved him from the gale.

Then the greatest story ever told
Was the birth of His Son,
Through all of His preachings
He was the chosen one.
Yes, He died for our sins
His life in which He gave,
In order for us to live
A life in which to be saved.

He promised He would return
The rising of the third day,
The guard fell asleep
When the stone rolled away.
He came with arms outstretched
Wearing a robe of white,
Where He promised he would be
The everlasting life.

That was awsome

We all should believe. Moreover listen, all through the bible it shows of people doing great things by listening. With the purity and innocence and belief of a child you can move mountains. Again thank you for the reminder so well written!
