A Child of the Father
Since you are a child of God,
Obey your Father as you laud;
Allow His love to be your guide,
While it roots deeply inside.
Christ loved us offering His life,
For easing our sinful strife;
Hung on the cross to pay the price,
In pleasing God through sacrifice.
Never think of an indecent thought,
Or immorally deeds are sought;
Idol worshipping is just greed,
Make you to sinfully concede.
Please do not be like dirty birds,
Using foolish and filthy words;
Rather say how thankful you are,
And soon be in Heaven afar.
Rest assured that if you behave,
To sin you will not be a slave;
Instead you will have the wisdom,
Falls from the Heavenly Kingdom.
