Unity and Brotherly Love

People who desire to live,
A full life and enjoy their days;
Need to know just how to forgive,
And learn not to argue always.

They must stop saying evil things,
And from speaking so much deceit;
Since not knowing the hurt it brings,
Caused by the lies while they cheat.

They have to lock the evil door,
Afterwards throw away the key;
And not be tempted by its lure,
To open again for to see.

They must go out in seeking peace,
Pursued no matter where they go;
And allowing love to release,
So others also feel and know.

Who will harm you when doing good?
Even if you suffer as you do;
God strengthens to do as you should,
Tough times will never outlast you.

Dedicate your life to the Lord,
Putting your confidence in God;
As you remain in one accord,
And Jesus Christ will bless and applaud.
