Poetry

---

There is encouragement in Christ,
Having so much comfort from love;
The Holy Spirit has enticed,
With the affection from above.

Fulfill my joy of the same mind,
Having the same love as the Lord;
So that I shall remain aligned,
While being in full accord.

Nothing from selfish ambition,
No conceit but with humility;
Having a spiritual condition,
In heavenly ability.

Look not just at your interest,
But at interests of others;
Put into the Lord all your trust,
Helping your sisters and brothers.

Allow His mind to be in you,
Which is yours as in Jesus Christ;
Everything you say and do,
Remember He was sacrificed.

He was in the form of God,
But did not count equality;
That the Father to whom we laud,
Through the peace and tranquility.

He took the form of a servant,
And born in the likeness of men;
Without emotional fervent.
Saving you but not to condemn.

Found in fashion form as a man,
By becoming obedient;
Death on a cross was in the plan,
Never being a deviant.

God has highly exalted Him,
Bestowed on Him above all names;
Along with His spiritual vim,
Every one of us proclaims.

At Jesus name each knee should bow,
Up in Heaven and on the earth;
All tongues confess should endow,
Jesus is Lord gives us rebirth.
