Drawing Nigh to God

James 4:6-8

God gives grace to those that are humble,
Those with pride He makes them stumble;
Submit yourself to God resisting the devil,
He will flee from you with all of his evil;
Draw nigh to God; He will draw nigh to you,
Purify your heart and mind of His virtue.
Be humble through your life in everything,
It's amazing at the blessings it will bring;
For the amount of grace that will flow,
That will be causing such a radiant glow;
It will be noticeable in your face and eyes,
How God's wisdom has made you so wise;
Giving you all of the ways and the means,
Defend against Satan when he intervenes;
Not only will it be block rather also repel,
All of the evil forces invading from Hell;
Open up your heart for God to come in,
He will ensure you are cleansed of sin;
Purifying both your heart and your mind,
Opening your eyes where you been blind.
