Boasting not Allowed
As some know what it means to fear,
Because of knowing God is near;
We must persuade others we know,
Of the direction they must go.
I hope that you know what we are,
And the journey we take so far;
To where it will finally end,
An eternity we will spend.
So you can answer those so proud,
That they are boastingly so loud;
For having such an attitude,
In being so uncouth and rude.

But if we would be as crazy,
Then we could never be lazy;
Like somebody with the foul lips,
Who just goes around and gossips.
But because of God we are sane,
Waiting for Christ to come again;
Ensuring others know as well,
Having an alternative to hell.
All because the love of Christ guides,
For as to each one that abides;
And not giving up the belief,
There is new life beyond the grief.
