Wake Up Call
All of you must serve each other,
Treating as sister or brother;
God hates if you are very rude,
With an arrogant attitude.
Rather God favors humbleness,
And will reward with blessedness;
Be humbled when the time is here,
He will honor so do not fear.
Give your anxiety to Him,
And you will not be feeling grim;
Because God really cares for you,
And will help in seeing you through.
Keep your mind clear and be on alert,
Your foe Satan will try to divert;
A lion stalks to devour,
Unknown of the exact hour.
So he will prowl throughout the night,
Will be resting by morning light;
Waiting till when darkness prevails,
For tempting you where sin impales.
Be firm in your faith and resist,
The roaring and howling persist;
Finding the courage and power,
Through the Lord every hour.
You know that other believers,
Also tempted by deceivers;
Throughout each corner of the earth,
Testing the strength of their rebirth.
