Be joyful in the Lord,
Remain in one accord;
Always do what is right,
Find favor in His sight.
For me to write the same,
Forever I proclaim;
You to be safe and sound,
That love and peace be found.
Beware of any dogs,
Looking like sleeping logs;
They may be evil snares,
Their master Satan bears.
Those who do evil things,
Beware what each one brings;
They just might be loathing,
As wolves in sheep clothing.
Watch for those who insist,
As circumcised cultist;
We serve His Spirit,
Circumcised by merit.
We place no confidence,
Into our residence;
Or the physical things,
That earthly pleasure brings.
If anyone else thinks,
Of just what the pen inks;
I can claim even more,
Not tempted by the lure.
Things that I once had seen,
Of value might have been;
Now are worthless to me,
For Jesus I must see.
It is far more than that,
Knowing where I was at;
And better off today,
I threw it all away.
Now I have gained favor,
With my Lord and Savior;
As I live in the light,
Being blessed in His sight.
