Following His Example
The end of all things is near,
That some of us will show fear;
With time coming to an end,
Too late for the wounds to mend.
The end of all is at hand,
And throughout all of the land;
Some people will never know,
Merely what Heaven will show.
Therefore practice self-control,
Keep temptations from your soul;
While you keep your mind clear,
Knowing that the end is near.
Above all love each other,
Just like sister and brother;
For love covers many sins,
That controls and disciplines.
Then you are able to pray,
For helping you through each day;
Knowing that tough times go fast,
Since you know they do not last.
So speak in the words of God,
Show that you honor and laud;
Onto the cross that you cling,
With Jesus being your king.
Serve with the strength God provides,
In the Word that one abides;
For the glory belongs to Christ,
Who suffered when sacrificed.
