As a Christian
Because of the Lord Jesus Christ,
We are never to be enticed;
So please live a God pleasing life,
Along with your husband or wife.
Even more than you already,
Remain both solid and steady;
More than a rock, like a bolder,
Since you are now getting older,
I hope that it is understood,
The way to do it as you should;
By doing the way you were taught.
For the peace of mind you have sought.
By the will of God keep away,
From anything that makes you stray;
That will be corrupting within,
It is lust that creates the sin.
You should know that finding a wife,
For spending the rest of your life;
It is the honorable way,
For living morally each day.
It keeps you from passionate lust,
That causes you to lose your trust;
No longer soon would you give God,
Revering to honor and laud.
No one should take advantage of,
The compassion of Christian love;
Because of your care and concern,
Is everything that you learn.
For if you decide to neglect,
Then you decided to reject;
The gift of the Holy Spirit,
And all that you will inherit.
