Poetry

---

Respect those who labor among you,
And are over you in the Lord;
That admonish as they pursue,
The projects that you have ignored.

Esteem them very highly in love,
Because of their work be at peace;
Praise unto the Father thereof,
As you pray proceed not to cease.

Admonish those that are uncouth,
Comfort those that are fainthearted;
Be patient as you speak the truth,
To the weak that have been thwarted.

Render not evil for evil,
Always seek in pursuing good;
Do not perform for the devil,
Always remember God above.

Rejoice unto the Lord always,
Give thanks and pray without ceasing;
Thanking God for your nights and days,
As faith in God is increasing.
