Live in harmony,
Be sympathetic;
Like a symphony,
But not pathetic.
Show love to all,
And have compassion;
For to humbly call,
In gentle fashion.
Pay not people back,
Evil for evil;
Show them what they lack,
Not of the devil.
Do not ridicule,
Or to insult them;
Be kind and not cruel,
Trying to condemn.
Give blessings instead,
For you inherit;
The more you have fed,
Rewards our merit.
Those who want to live,
A life to enjoy;
Must learn to forgive,
Not talk to destroy.
Tongues must not say things,
With an evil beat;
If spoken it brings,
Just lies and deceit.
The eyes of God see,
As His ears will hear;
Truth within your plea,
When He has drawn near.
