Do you have encouragement,
Any comfort from the love;
A spiritual management,
Flowing down from up above.
Do you have some sympathy,
Compassion or the sorrow;
Maybe it is apathy,
About hope for tomorrow.
Then fill me in having joy,
Loving the same attitude;
Never trying to destroy,
What Christ had in aptitude.
Always live in harmony,
Keeping one purpose in mind;
Never causing agony,
Rather always being kind.
Have no selfish ambition,
And do not be conceited;
Consider inhibition,
Or you will be defeated.
So humbly think of others,
As being better than you;
Show respect to your brothers,
And always telling them true.
Have an attitude like Christ,
Showing others compassion;
Never to become enticed,
In any earthly fashion.
Christ took the form of a slave,
Humbly serving the masses;
God rescued Him from the grave,
To forgive your trespasses.
Compliant until the cross,
Obedient until death;
Our gain comes from His loss,
Life after our last breath.
So we must kneel and confess,
That Jesus Christ is the Lord;
And the Father sure to bless,
If living in one accord.
