No Partiality
Practice your faith in our Lord,
Seeing He is loved and adored;
Treating equally each brother,
Not to favor one for another.
Each one that comes to praise His name,
Had better be treated the same;
No matter if as rich or poor,
Works as a clerk or owns the store.
No matter of the clothes that are worn,
Looking very neat or have been torn;
It is not up to us to judge,
Be prejudice or hold a grudge.
God chose the poor to be wealthy,
Being spiritually healthy;
And you do right if you obey,
As Jesus taught you for each day.
So love your neighbor as you love,
Yourself and Jesus does thereof;
To love one more than another,
Commits sin against a brother.
For you will then show no respect,
Allowing yourself to neglect;
Since you have been showing favor,
Which will make the sin much graver.
