Sir Ricky's Inspirational Poetry Corner

Awake, O sleeper,

Rise up from the dead;

True light is deeper,

From Jesus, be fed.

Christ will shine on you,

Careful how you live;

Be not sad and blue,

Since God will forgive.

Never be foolish,

Rather to be wise;

Never be selfish,

To find your demise.

Never walk cagey,

The same as the fools;

Think religiously,

And the golden rules.

The days are evil,

Wickedness abound;

Works of the devil,

Completely around.

Redeeming the time,

Follow not the crowd;

Who will commit crime,

Too boastful and loud.

Be understanding,

The Lord and His will;

He is commanding,

Wanting to instill.

Drink not too much wine,

Wherein is excess;

Rather be divine,

All that you express.

Speak to each other,

In spiritual songs;

Sing with your brother,

Where your heart belongs.

Always give your cheers,

To God the Father;

It will calm your fears,

That takes you farther.

Peace to each other,

Reverence for Christ;

Willing to offer,

To be sacrificed.
