The Story in the Stars
By
Diana Wallis Taylor 12/16
The heaven’s declare the glory of God
For it’s written in the Word.
God showed the redemption story,
Before ever voice was heard.
In the constellation VIRGO
We are shown the promised seed.
A virgin shall conceive and bear
A Son to meet our need.
The love of our Redeemer
Who died to take our place,
That man’s sin might be covered
By everlasting grace.
LIBRA, scales of justice,
A price that must be paid.
A cross endured, a sacrifice
Redemption’s purchase made.
SCORPIO, the conflict,
The serpent-bitten heel.
Yet heaven’s sword is wielded
Sin burdens to repeal.
SAGGITTARIUS, the triumph,
The dragon is cast down.
His evil plot is vanquished
As he’s denied the crown.
CAPRICORN, the goat,
Sent off to bear man’s sin.
Now in its place, the Lamb of God
Bids new life to begin.
AQUARIUS , the blessings of
The water of the Word.
We plunge beneath to rise again,
New birth is our reward.
PISCES, blessings held for us
To loose us from our chains.
The Righteous One, Deliverer.
No trace of sin remains.
ARIES shows the dragon bound
And cast into the pit.
Mankind’s millennial reprieve
The world with peace alit.
TAURUS the bull, God breaking forth
In wrath His fury poured
Upon the hoards of unredeemed,
The judgment of the Lord.
GEMINI, the Prince of Peace
Redeems His fallen world.
He leads out heaven’s armies
His banner waves unfurled.
CANCER, God takes back his own,
And gathers flock to fold
In Armageddon victory
As prophets have foretold.
LEO, Judah’s lion.
He roars in victory.
God’s cup of wrath has been poured out,
And you and I are free.
So as you view the heavens
With the stars all shining bright,
Remember that they tell a tale,
Of grace and love tonight.
