Poetry

---

In view of all that we got,
Of earthly things we should not;
The one thing that we should share,
Compassion of loving care.

There is no need to think twice,
As a living sacrifice;
Dedicate your life to God,
Giving Him honor and laud.

This kind of worship is right,
And pleasing within His sight;
Not like others on this earth,
Since you have now a new birth.

His blessings fill to the brim,
While you are pleasing Him;
In all that you say and do,
Each and every day through.

So change the way that you think,
And your life will never sink;
You will know His desires,
Of you that He requires.

What is good and is pleasing,
To the Lord without ceasing;
Never with any defect,
God ensures it as perfect.
