The- Story - Of - A - Missionary-5 Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

I am writing about
Robert Jermain Thomas.


Later, Robert found
a way to take the
gospel to Korea
as a translator
aboard a Chinese
trading ship.

On a trip to Korea,
the ship's crew
fired cannons
on hostile Koreans
on the shore.

Fearing they
would lose the
battle and the
Bibles would
be lost, Robert
threw the Bibles
into the water.

He managed
to get some of
them to the
shore himself,
in his final
effort to reach
the Koreans.

But just after
he reached
the shore, he
was beheaded
by some angry civilians.
