"The Keys of the Kingdom": A Poem of Jesus Christ

THE KEYS OF THE KINGDOM
A Poem of Jesus Christ
from the Bible: Matthew 16:17-19 (King James Version)

Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona:
For flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee,
But my Father which is in heaven.
And I say also unto thee,
That thou art Peter,
And upon this rock I will build my church;
And the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
And I will give unto thee
The keys of the kingdom of heaven:
And whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth
Shall be bound in heaven;
And whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth
Shall be loosed in heaven.
