The intercession
The intercession of the intercessors,
The guilty ones into Hell like thirsty aggressors,
Intervening on behalf of one and the other,
Frightened as from the lion to the inferno you muster.
No intercessor to save you after His leave,
Of the last day you must, must believe.
The intercession of the intercessors,
Say a prayer, a prayer on behalf of another.
An interceding with good intercession?
Guards yourself against evil and suppression.
Give praise, petition, and supplication,
Thanksgiving, adoration, and confession.
