You were indeed called to be free,
Do not make it as an excuse;
Open your eyes so you can see,
That you have caused excess abuse.
Your corrupt nature you express,
Rather than serving with the love;
Which is causing others much stress,
Blocking the blessings from above.
For all of what Moses had taught.
About loving of your neighbor;
As of yourself that you have sought,
Forgetting about your Savior.
If you criticize each other,
Just be careful not to destroy;
Respect feelings of your brother,
With any words that you deploy.
Live your life as a new creature,
Then you will never follow through;
The wants of your corrupt nature,
That your mind would like to construe.
What your immoral nature wants,
Is contrary to your belief;
While within your dreams it haunts,
It will never give you relief.
If not doing as you intend,
The Holy Spirit does not guide;
And all of the time that you spend,
Is controversial deep inside.
For you have been called to freedom,
Not to use as an occasion;
That excludes you from His Kingdom,
For as a tempting persuasion.
Be servants for one another,
As through the love coming from Christ;
If you devour your brother,
Not letting him getting enticed.
