Moral Virtues
Whoever does mock the Word,
Will be feeling the wrath;
But you can expect a reward,
If you walk the righteous path.
With the teaching of the wise,
Will be a fountain of life;
Turning them away from lies,
And avoiding all the strife.
Wise behavior with wise thought,
Shows ones faith in their knowledge;
While fools only show can not,
Their faith is lacking courage.
Shame will always be the fate,
Taking the easy way out;
They only know to hesitate,
While they are having doubt.
For evil stalks the sinner,
Whose faith is extremely weak;
As a complainer and whiner,
For the earthly things they seek.
