Continue to love each other,
Allowing love to comfort you;
Shine on your sister and brother,
By telling everything true.
Forget not hospitality,
To believers you do not know;
Giving your generosity,
With the pleasure that it does show.
Forget to show love to strangers,
Because you might be unaware;
Of angels shielding from dangers,
Showing you that the Lord does care.
Remember anyone in jail,
And someone that is mistreated;
It is not the end of the trail,
They have yet to be defeated.
Let marriage be a noble way,
And honorable onto all;
Be faithful not to go astray,
Letting divorce be the downfall.
God will judge the sexual sin,
Especially adultery;
Or fornication that has been,
Performing for pornography.
Be free of the love of money,
And be happy with what you got;
God will provide milk and honey,
What was not able to be bought.
For God will not abandon you,
He will not leave you high and dry;
If you remain faithful and true,
He will not allow you to cry.
So I can confidently say,
The Lord is always there to aid;
Remember to trust and obey,
There is no need to be afraid.
Remember those placed where to rule,
Think of how their lives have turned out;
Violent protests make you a fool,
Causing unrest and so much doubt.
