Analysis of About Hell
Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)
Relaxing.
The joy of love.
There is a trumpet.
There are no taxes.
Oh, it’s not here:
The demons
The dead,
Even what bakes.
Sundering.
The slander.
Tongues that wander.
Jesus saved our souls
From where it boils.
A hot hell,
But, in church a bell.
We are saved
From what the Devil craved.
Now in heaven we can rave.
A totem
Of the Holy Trinity's love.
