As a prisoner of the Lord, I am living the kind of life; With desire of one accord, As I cope through the midst of strife. Be gentle as well as humble, In all you through every way; So you will not ever stumble, Never detour and go astray. Be patient with one another, Through peace that ties you together; Lovingly accept each other, Maintain oneness as you gather. Try to maintain the unity, The Holy Spirit has given; As you maintain your dignity, About your ticket up to Heaven. There is one body and Spirit, The same as called to hope and share; For knowing what you inherit, And showing how much you do care. One baptism and of one Lord, And one faith in a triune God; One Father as loved and adored, That we will still honor and laud. Who is everything, Overall and everywhere; And all the gifts that He does bring, For all of us to use and share. His favor is given to you, Gifts to each woman and to man; Measured out to us to be true, By Christ who gave it in His plan. Jesus went to the highest place, Took captive who had captured you; Ensured forgiveness with the grace, Guiding everything that you do. What does it mean that He went up, After going down into the deep; To rid lethal sin in the cup, While causing Satan to sleep. Copyright © 2016 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
