Poetry

---

Love not anything in the world,
Rather have love in the Father;
And when His plan has been unfurled,
Your knowledge will exceed further.

Of the world if someone would love,
Love for the Father not within;
Desires of the flesh thereof,
Are corrupting them deep with sin.

All in this world are desires,
Lusts of the flesh and of the eye;
The pride of life one acquires,
Is causing the body to die.

For this world is passing away,
Along with desires thereof;
All those who continue to stray,
Will never know God and His love.

Whoever does the will of God,
Will also abide forever;
Continue to honor and laud,
And His love will never sever.
