Your Prior Rights
If it is the truth that you seek,
Then hand down justice when you speak;
And you will win your case in court,
Before Satan tries to distort.
But if what you do has been wrong,
Then the agony will prolong;
God is able to judge your worth,
If transfigured into rebirth.
Your lie cannot increase glory,
Telling a fictional story;
God will judge you as a sinner,
And a loser not a winner.
Doing evil never makes good,
Like sinking sand to whence you stood;
And two wrongs do not make it right,
If you want to walk in the light.
Some may slander while they claim,
As to be living in His name;
But they are condemned and merit,
Nothing from the Holy Spirit.
In fact they deserve nothing less,
To truly feel the full distress;
For being such a sinful slave.
Nothing but a fiery grave.
