Choose To Live a Holy Life
Be vigilant and think straight,
To go through the narrow gate;
Put all of your hopes and dreams,
Into the one that redeems.
Think of how kind God will be,
When Jesus has set you free;
From the enslavement of sin,
And has cleansed you deep within.
Stop being so defiled,
Rather a humbled child;
Extinguish any fires,
Of your burning desires.
First time born filled with greed,
Of a corruptible seed;
But rebirth will make it pure,
For withstanding any lure.
Live your life as understood,
The way that God says you should;
Of His Word never depart,
Rather abiding in your heart.
