Poetry

---

We ought to obey God rather than of man,
Abiding by His wish according to His plan;
The God of our fathers raised up Christ,
Whom they slew and hung to be sacrificed;
Exalted by God of His right to be a Prince,
Also a Saviour from the Heavenly province;
Giving repentance and forgiveness of sin,
As we are thoroughly cleansed deep within;
We are the witnesses of all this and more,
Just as the Holy Spirit opens up the door;
As a gift from God to all those who obey,
Allowing for Him to abide within everyday.
I do not say to disregard man-made laws,
Even though that they have a lot of flaws;
It's just a top priority should be to God,
Whom you should always honor and laud;
It is since He created us an escape route,
Within Jesus Christ that I am talking about;
For the Father gave His only begotten Son,
Ensure the fullness of God in us has begun.
