Light up for Christ


Matthew 5:13-16

Each one of us is as the salt of the earth,
But in loosing a taste you loose your worth;
So how again shall you become good salt?
Totally good for nothing any usage to halt.
Each one of us is as the light of the world,
A city on a hill from light beams is hurled;
For as a burning light is put on its table,
So throughout the house rays shine stable;
Let your light be shining before everyone,
That your good works reflect from the Son;
Give glory to God your Father in Heaven,
Thanking Him for your all sins is forgiven.
Of the earth we are both the salt and light,
As long as we keep doing everything right;
But just as with salt for to loose its flavor,
Unable to cook with it in loosing its savor;
We become useless if our light burns out,
And just being no good to God if we doubt;
Light up for Christ let your goodness shine,
While being a premium salt that's so refine.
