Bible in Poems

[MichelleO]

Hey all,
I was wondering if anyone would ever be interested in each book of the Bible condensed into short poems, especially for ages 6-12.

Here's an example from Isaiah:

The Lord’s throne in His temple quakes with smoke, I’ve seen,
The King of heaven’s army, and my lips unclean!
An angel touched them with a coal off the altar,
He said all my sins are forgiven, to not falter.

The Lord asked, who will go? I said, send me!
Tell My people, shut their eyes, do not see!
Cover their ears and let their hearts be sealed,
To not understand, repent, then be healed.

I asked if they would stay that way for long,
The Lord said ‘til all their cities are gone,
And only a tree stump remains, a tenth as a seed,
But they will return to the land and grow once they’re freed.

This sounds cool. Just be sure that the verses do not loose their original meaning.
