Honoring Mom and Dad

Mathew 15:3-8

Do not breach the Laws of God by tradition,
Heed to as Moses required for submission;
Honor your father and mother all the time,
If you curse them you committed a crime;
For you shall die of a terrible ugly death,
Suffering until your last agonizing breath;
They are a gift graciously profited by you,
In reaping all benefits your life through;
By your tradition the Word of God is void,
For that very reason it makes me annoyed;
Being hypocrites speaking with your lips,
With your heart being far from God's grips.
Take a good look at the Laws from God,
Think of how many you do honor and laud;
Look at the fifth to honor mom and dad,
Then of when you misbehaved being bad;
If you say no just yourself you deceive,
With neither for to gain or for to achieve;
Honoring your parents who raised you up,
Will ensure to overflow your blessing cup.
