Revelations 21:4

Many ask why people suffer in pain so,
And die cruelly, where is God they want to know?

God did not desire this for His creation,
it is sin since Adam and Eve, and Satan’s manipulation.

Revelations twenty-one, and verse four clearly shows,
God’s plan for us all in the future ends these woes.

Those children with shaved heads crying in pain,
will be comforted forever, and in Heaven remain.

Cancer and all illnesses shall be passed away,
those former things will be gone forever to stay.

No more suffering, sorrow, and even death,
Jesus has defeated them all with His strength.

So, if you're hurting, just realize it is temporary,
it will pass along with our dreaded adversary.
