Fear Less
An angry man will stir up strife,
For someone else within his life;
Stubbornness makes him always right,
And he will want to start a fight.
For stubbornness does not show wrong,
With changes agony will prolong;
Causing the wrath to come abound,
As chaos makes an abrupt sound.
He will be feeling very grim,
Since pride will humiliate him;
Causing him to feel the disgrace,
While he has been losing face.
A humble spirit gains respect,
Which others can never reject;
For the honor that one would hold,
Is worth more than pride being bold.
The one as a thief for a goal,
Is a hater of his own soul;
And testify not under oath,
For truth has corrupt overgrowth.
The fear within can set a trap.
Which camouflage will overlap;
In being enticed by the snare,
Satan will prize you in his lair.
But whoever trusts in the Lord,
Shall never find themselves ignored;
A safe haven under His wing,
Able to the cross he can cling.
