Wives, submit to your husband, He is the head of His wife; Just as Jesus did command, Backed for the rest of her life. Christ is the head of the church, For He is our Savior; Who we consult as we search, Glorified through His favor. For the church submits to Christ, As wives submit to their man; Not reluctant but enticed, For following in his plan. Husbands have to love their wives, Just as Christ has loved the church; Prepared to lay down their lives, No longer a need to search. So He may sanctify her, Cleansed by washing in the Word; Guiding through what may occur, Any suggestions offered. He pose Himself with splendor, Without a spot or wrinkle; The church not to disfigure, Stays the same and not crinkle. So husbands should love their wives, He loves his wife as his own; Loving the rest of their lives, Not to walk this life alone. No one should hate their body, Rather nourish and cherish; Not letting to be shoddy, Or letting it to perish. Of His body as members, Both of His flesh and His bones; Enduring what encumbers, By which each one of us owns. A man shall leave his mother, And be joined unto his wife; Be attached to no other, Throughout the rest of his life Copyright © 2020 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
