You have always obeyed,
In all of which you do;
But confessed when you prayed,
When things were not so true.
Work out your salvation,
As you fear with trembling;
To build a foundation,
Where you are traveling.
It is God to produce,
Actions from desires;
But you cause a misuse,
On what it acquires.
Do everything lest,
Without any complaints;
No arguments is best,
Using any restraints.
Then you will be blameless,
Innocent from all guilt;
God is willing to bless,
From the bridge that you built.
You are children of God,
And without any fault;
As you honor and laud,
If hostilities halt.
So many are crooked,
With having been corrupt;
They think you are stupid,
On how you developed.
But you shine like the stars,
Since you live for the Lord;
Who has healed all your scars,
Living in one accord.
Hold firmly to the Word,
Then you can brag all day;
Proclaim what you have heard,
As you trust and obey.
Your life is being poured,
In being sacrificed;
Living in one accord,
For the Lord Jesus Christ.
