Poetry

Be careful what you say because you can't take it back
When emotions are in motion it's too easy to react
Self control is one of the fruit of the Spirit of God
It follows many others and starts with His love

Be careful what you say because you can't take it back
Remember you always have a choice: agree or attack
Think fast before adrenaline looses your tongue
Because words are like swords whether spoken or sung

Be careful what you say because you can't take it back
Remember you always have a choice: tact or react
Every peacemaker uses the wisdom of diplomacy
Because words when spoken right make men see

A word of wisdom is like gold my friend: never try to sell her!
A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver

for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
"A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things:
and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
"But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account
hereof in the day of judgment.
