Please God in your Life

Because of the Lord we compel,
Ask to encourage you to excel;
In living a God pleasing life,
Even within the midst of strife.

Please do not go and become weak,
When you look for answers you seek;
Remember the way you were taught,
For things required to be sought.

Do not let orders be ignored,
Given onto you through the Lord;
The will of God says keep away,
From temptations that make you stray.

So you can be spared from the wrath,
If you avoid the lustful path;
Through the passionate seduction,
Of Satan and his abduction.

No one should exploit believers,
But caution of the deceivers;
That will take advantage of you,
Hitting fast and without a clue.

God called on us to be holy,
To be pure and also lowly;
Not as sexually unchaste,
That many harlots have embraced.
