When I encourage you,
It is not as it seems;
For I say what is true,
Without unethical schemes.
Not deception or fake,
Or corrupt practices;
For God will not forsake,
And forgive trespasses.
For I spread the Good News,
As we do our best;
For Christ paid our dues,
And we have passed the test.
We do not please people,
Rather for pleasing God;
As we tell the Gospel,
Giving honor and laud.
God tests our motives,
If sincere in the heart;
If clean since He forgives,
Pure with each thought impart.
We never use flattery,
Or schemes to make money;
And not for trickery,
Serious not funny.
God is our witness,
To whom we give out praise;
In spiritual fitness,
We exercise each phase.
Like a mother takes care,
Of children so much;
The love that she would share,
Has the personal touch.
