Turn to God When Tested
You should be quick to hear,
But then be slow to speak;
Putting your tongue in gear,
When you find what you seek.
When you anger too quick,
You will wind up confused;
And might make yourself sick,
As your mind gets abused.
Any angry person,
God never does approve;
And love for anyone,
As the Lord will remove.
So get rid of that mood,
Filled with an evil thought;
Stop that bad attitude,
You immorally sought.
Humbly accept the Word,
That the Lord has given;
Just the way you have heard,
Unto us from Heaven.
These words that the Lord gives,
Allows you to be saved;
And in your heart He lives,
Where His words are engraved.
So be swift to listen,
And heed what you may hear;
As your heart will glisten,
For the God that you fear.
