Continue to love each other,
Spiritual sister and brother;
Do not forget to give fellowship,
To believers on a long trip.
They are tired when they stop by,
No need though in asking them why;
Just show them hospitality,
Travel is a brutality.
If they need to rest over night,
Invite them to stay till daylight;
When they continue on their ride,
And the Lord remains as their guide.
For you just might be unaware,
The hospitality you share;
Could be with angels sent by God,
Seeing if you believe or a fraud.
Remember the ones mistreated,
Next to you they might be seated;
For anytime or anywhere,
God might want to see if you care.
Honorable every way,
The Lord does not want you to stray;
Being faithful in your marriage,
Never let your mate disparage.
The Lord will judge husbands and wives,
In committing sin in their lives;
If you commit adultery,
God will handle your treachery.
So be happy with what you got,
Greed only applies to a lot;
Loving money makes an idol,
That could also make you libel.
