A Beautiful New Creation

II Corinthians 5:17 & 18

If anyone is in Christ, he's a new creation,
No longer as of flesh filled with damnation;
Being of the body of Christ as God is true,
For the word became flesh for to save you.
As a believer in Christ, nothing's the same,
Since you have a new life for to proclaim;
Your life's filled with something beautiful,
Because God is compassionate and merciful;
You have been given a brand new direction,
That's filled with a tremendous inspiration;
The vigor and vitality is flowing within,
A renewed spirit helps you to overcome sin;
But caution on the temptations encountered,
For they are very sly and are not deterred;
Satan has many tricks being up his sleeve,
Made especially formulated that'll deceive;
He'd love to see you slide off the track,
When he send out his henchmen for to attack;
Be ever vigilant in remaining on your guard,
God's everlasting life shall be your reward.
