Poetry

---

Put to death worldly things,
Your perversion and lust;
The sexual sin that brings,
A false sense that you trust.

Loose girls call you honey,
But are just full of greed;
And just want your money,
While you plant your seed.

Because of sin God hates,
Denying to obey;
Since you are lured by baits,
Each and every day.

Cursing and vulgar talk,
Anger from attitude;
In the darkness you walk,
And always being rude.

Lie not to each other,
Rid the old deep inside;
Tell true to your brother,
And in the Lord abide.

Become a new person,
Restore Jesus in you;
The Father sent His Son,
For all sin He had to.

Renew in the knowledge,
Why sacrifice for sin;
Then go change your image,
You will be cleansed within.

For if you do confess,
God is righteous and just,
Will forgive also bless,
If you give Him your trust.

Be gentle and humble,
Sympathetic and kind;
Never try to grumble,
Rather peace on your mind.

So forgive and forget,
Just as the Lord forgave;
Your salvation set,
And rescue from your grave.
