Whosoever Believes

PAD Challenge day 4: For today’s prompt, take the phrase “Whosoever (blank),” replace the blank with a word or phrase, make the new phrase the title of your poem, and then, write your poem.

Whosoever believes on Him 

No requisite but one

To inherit eternal life

When mortal days are done

...and whosoever will may come

And whosoever calls

Upon the name of Christ the Lord

Will be saved, one and all

Let all of we who thirst then come

And freely drink our fill

Salvation through God's only Son

Replenishes the well 

...whosoever hears the words

Of Jesus and believes

Is not condemned but through His blood

Eternal life receives
