Advice on Marriage
Each man should have a wife,
To cherish through his life;
And avoid sexual sin,
That would corrupt within.
Both of them have fires,
Lit from their desires;
So one is to fulfill,
The other might instill.
As husbands have their wives,
For the needs in their lives;
Wives also have husbands,
Valued more than diamonds.
Do not ever hold back,
Because what you may lack;
And Satan just might lure,
Through his seductive door.
Live life as the Lord gave,
And not being a slave;
It was not in the plan,
Wives as slaves for a man.
A rib was from the side,
Be equal as the bride;
Love honor and obey,
Each and every day.
Through the Lord you are free,
With your lives equally;
Not as over the other,
But sister and brother.
