I say and encourage you,
Onto the Lord remain true;
Not to live any longer,
But spiritually stronger.
We think on worthless things,
The pleasure that it brings;
Without thoughts of the long term,
And corrupted as a germ.
Many cannot understand,
They are built on sinking sand;
And they only go embark,
In areas of the dark.
They are excluded from life,
Having to live in the strife;
Ignorance and stubbornness,
Excludes them from blessedness.
They cannot ever proclaim,
Since they have no sense of shame;
For they are promiscuous,
Enticed by the sensuous.
Practice of every kind,
Giving pleasures to the mind;
Thinking each time is the cure,
But gives desire for more.
But that is not what you earned,
From Jesus and should have learned;
For you heard His message taught,
Answers to your questions sought.
The Lord can be forgiving,
The way that you are living;
Focus on life and not rude,
With a godly attitude.
