Words of Life
One book with the orders and laws,
God decided for our flaws;
Gave us for teaching that we may,
For having a link when we pray.
So you practice them in the land,
On solid rock not sinking sand;
With always living in the fear,
In knowing that the Lord is near.
That is so you remember them,
Come that day He does not condemn;
For timeless pain in agony,
Not confessing with apology.
So give an ear and taking care,
That you admit your faults in prayer;
Confession is good for the soul,
Prior to having pay the toll.
Words of life for you to impart,
That you keep them deep in your heart;
Loving God with all of your might,
Remaining to live in the light.
