Remembering the Lord


We become attached to things of earth,
Cherishing them more than their worth;
Within our minds as they turn into gods,
Not realizing they are a bunch of frauds.

We do not see how we make God grim,
When we put our idols ahead of Him;
Thinking first of our personal pleasure,
Rather than of our Heavenly treasure.

It is apparent the source of our thirst,
When we are putting other things first;
Completely disregarding His command,
That was inscribed by His very hand.

So we wind up getting deeper into debt,
As we continue and tending to forget;
He is the Lord our God and no more,
Not a single thing shall come before.

So I caution you through this way,
Give laud and honor to Him each day;
Remember Him in everything you do,
And He will not be forgetting you too.
