Christian Living Guidelines
Tell believers how they should live,
And to their neighbor what to give;
While teaching the kind of life,
To help them through toils and strife.
Always remember your neighbor,
Tell elder men to remain sober;
So they do not stumble and fall,
Using good judgment on the law.
Tell older women live their lives,
Remaining to be faithful wives;
And being dedicated to God,
Worshiping to honor and laud.
Tell them never to be gossips,
Or let alcohol touch their lips;
But as examples of virtue,
With each and every day through.
For all women should love their spouse,
While taking care of their house;
Ensuring that the truth is sought,
For all that the children are taught.
For all should be morally pure,
To be spiritually mature;
And be remaining free from sin,
For a new life that will begin.
