In knowing the fear of the Lord,
Then we have to persuade others;
Let it not ever be ignored,
For warning sisters and brothers.
But what are we is known to God,
Hoping it known to your conscience;
That sin has been making you flawed,
Without a disciplined defense.
For we do not commend to you,
But giving you a cause to boast;
In letting your mind to construe,
About our heavenly host.
Those with an outward appearance,
And not of what is in the heart;
Satan causes interference,
Attempting you from God depart.
If we are beside ourselves,
Then it would be for our Lord;
If our right mind on the shelves,
You let the Lord would be ignored.
For the love of Christ controls us,
We are convinced that He had died;
For our transgressions as thus,
That His death then was justified.
Because He died for everyone,
Those who live might no longer live;
As the Father had raised the Son,
The prospect that He will forgive.
