We know the fear of the Lord,
Persuade people who ignored;
But we are well known to God,
Because we honor and laud.
We have tried not to commend,
Nor others have we condemned;
Rather a chance to have pride,
Because in Him we abide.
If I am out of my mind,
Being so humble and kind;
For the Lord my mind is sound,
Since I will be Heaven bound.
For the love of Christ controls,
Of the fate of our souls;
That Jesus had died for all,
Because Adam took the fall.
He died for those who live,
A chance for God to forgive;
Confessing for to be raised,
From the dead as we have praised.
No one with a manly view,
Have earthly things to construe;
Rather than looking above,
For seeing the flow love.
Even though we have known Christ,
Earthly pleasures have enticed;
But we know Him not that way,
Like those who have gone astray.
If we are truly in Christ,
We no longer are enticed;
Being a new creation,
Since God gave us salvation.
All these things are from God,
And why we honor and laud;
With reconciliation,
For offering us salvation.
We are His ambassadors,
Through the life of corridors;
On His behalf we will plea,
Reconcile to be free.
God made One not knowing sin,
Tempted but did not begin;
So, we might be made righteous,
Pursuant under His purchase.
