Poetry

Help the women that labor in the Gospel,
As well as others who taught the people;
For their names are in the book of life,
Suffering through the toil and the strife;
We need to always rejoice in the Lord,
Your spirit is renewed and life restored;
So let your moderation be known to all,
The Lord is at hand and not let you fall;
Caution on nothing everything in prayer,
Supplication with thanks for God to share.
We owe a debt of gratitude to our God,
Taking us under His wing even as flawed;
For joy is found in the Lord not in things,
The one who reigns as the King of Kings;
Joy is found in knowing that He is near,
In being with you there is nothing to fear;
So sing praises as you lift up your voice,
And let it be heard by all as you rejoice;
The peace of God goes to who perceive,
Having Christ in their heart to believe.
