Worthiness of Rewards


Matthew 10:37-42

He that loves their own father and mother,
More than Christ isn't worthy of the other;
He that loves their own son or daughter,
More than Christ isn't worthy of His offer;
He who doesn't take his cross to follow,
Not worthy and be turned away in sorrow;
He who has found his life, it will be lost,
For the wages of sin comes with a cost;
Whosoever loses his life on Jesus' stead,
Will find it and never have a day to dread;
He who receives you receives the Christ,
Whose very own life for us was sacrificed;
So he whosoever receives the Son of man,
Receives Him who has sent for His plan;
He who has received a prophet as lord,
The prophet shall receive a special reward;
He who receives a righteous man that's wise,
Shall receive a righteous man's surprise;
Whoever gives a drink to the nestlings,
He's a disciple with new awakenings.
