Poetry

---

My desire of who troubles you,
That they be condemned for life;
For whoever with Christ in view,
Should not be in a midst of strife.

As Christ has truly made us free,
And never to wind up as a slave;
Since Christ died for you and me,
Keeping us from rotting in a grave.

Just do not give the flesh a chance,
Rather as servants one to another;
Going beyond to further enhance,
In treating everyone as your brother.

For the law is made of one word,
That God Himself sends from above;
It is up to us that everyone has heard,
That He has commanded us to love.

Stop fighting and love your neighbor,
As within yourselves to be the same;
Accepting Christ as Lord and Savior,
Lights your love in an eternal flame.
