I am speaking in human form,
Because you do have a weakness;
A corrupt nature as your norm,
Without signs of any meekness.
You once offered every part,
Of your body as sinful slaves;
To transgressing wants of the heart,
That will send you to early graves.
Disobedience to the Law.
Allows sin to be your master;
And giving you another flaw,
Leading up to your disaster.
Living disobedient lives,
All because of some pleasure;
You will be judged when Christ arrives,
And in forfeiting your treasure.
When being as a slave to sin,
What do you gain by doing them?
Your journey to hell will begin,
A guilty verdict will condemn.
For you should be feeling ashamed,
Of the things that you like to do;
In the end is death you proclaimed,
That the eternal grave is due.
Offer all of the parts of you,
To be a slave unto the Lord;
Then God will be helping you though,
If you remain in one accord.
Doing the things that God approves,
Will lead you to live holy lives;
For all of your flaws He removes,
To be pardoned when Christ arrives.
For then you will be free from sin,
And have become a slave of God;
Having a new life to begin,
Worshipping to honor and laud.
This results in eternal life,
Since the wages of sin is death;
Guiding you through the afterlife,
Which is beyond your final breath.
