If the heart of the poet
Reflects the Fruits of the Spirit
I know that you will truly see
The Word of the Lord
Revealed in the lyric
Leading you toward eternity.
If the heart of the poet
Speaks of Love and Patience
Kindness, Peace, and great Joy,
Gentle Goodness and Faithfulness
Will surely follow
As Self-Control the poet employs.
If the heart of the poet
Leads you toward Jesus,
And the Love
That HE offers to you,
Then the poet
Has completed his purpose
And, prayerfully,
The next step is up to you.
