The sonnet, titled “The Savior’s Kingdom Stands Unshaken (Hebrews 12:28),” is a Shakespearean poem (ABAB CDCD EFEF GG rhyme scheme, iambic pentameter) that celebrates the unshakable kingdom of the Savior amidst a perpetually shaken world, inspired by Hebrews 12:28: “Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken…” (NIV). The first quatrain contrasts the world’s raging chaos with Christ’s steadfast domain, a kingdom immune to fear and time’s decay. The second quatrain depicts the earth’s instability—empires falling and shadows fading—against the enduring light and strength of the Savior’s reign. The third quatrain emphasizes His sovereign seat’s resilience, offering unbreakable peace and eternal might despite worldly strife. The final couplet proclaims the triumph of His throne over transient ruins, affirming its growing glory. Written without first-person references, the sonnet exalts the Savior’s kingdom as an unshakable refuge, fulfilling the biblical promise with a victorious tone.

The world reels wild, its tempests fiercely rage,
Yet Christ’s domain defies all quaking dread,
His kingdom towers firm through every age,
A rock where mortal tumult finds no tread.
The earth convulses, empires crack and sway,
While shadows flee before His steady light,
The Savior’s reign holds fast through storm and fray,
Its might unshaken, boundless in its height.
Though chaos grips the lands with ceaseless woe,
His sovereign seat remains forever sure,
No power breaks the peace His rule bestow,
Eternal strength in Him shall long endure.
Let trembling realms their fragile ruin know,
The Savior’s throne stands firm, His glories grow!
