Living Bread

Do not gossip from one to another,
As you travel through your day;
Christ can not call you His brother,
Spreading rumors come what may.

The prophets have written the truth,
Through the Scriptures from God;
Starting to learn in your early youth,
Properly showing honor and laud.

All who learned comes to Christ,
Before you are able to see the Father;
Unless you have abided and sacrificed,
You would be unable to go thither.

He who believes in eternal life,
Shall live on the Heavenly bread;
Not surrounded in the midst of strife,
Rather we will live forever instead.

Christ is the living bread from Heaven,
We must eat of it to learn its worth;
For the opportunity that God has given,
Came through the miracle of one birth.
