Poetry

---

Christ had suffered here on earth,
To give us chance of a rebirth;
So we must also suffer too,
To stop sinning each day through.

You must stop lighting fires,
That ignites your desires;
But trust in God and obey,
With your life every day.

You already lived long enough,
To know just how it gets tough;
Being immorally flawed,
With having no love for God.

You even worshiped idols,
As the desire kindles;
With your head up in a cloud,
And sticking with the wrong crowd.

Now you know love each other,
Same as sister and brother;
Since love wipes away the sin,
His Spirit cleanses within.
