Living in Sin
Dedicated to Consider the Consequences
Many are corrupted within,
With bodies that are dead with sin;
And not feeling a bit of shame,
For an immoral life they aim.
They are merely the living dead,
A contagious disease to spread;
Enticing others the same way,
That can cause the feeble to stray.
Lack of faith will make you feeble,
Far from the righteous path stumble;
That will lead you into a lair,
As Satan traps them with a snare.
The trouble is with no escape,
While grabbing you by the nape;
That gives you a false sense of joy,
Till that day fire will destroy.
By that time it will be too late,
For them to reach the narrow gate;
Since all will see that Christ was sent,
For believers who did repent.
Do not continue to transgress,
But be remorseful and confess;
Consequences of desire,
The eternal lake of fire.
