Poetry

As an elder of the church,
I truly constantly search;
For those who have a true love,
Within the Lord up above.

It is really in my prayer,
Of this love that you do share;
With your sisters and brothers,
Also fathers and mothers.

You can do well in all things,
Coping with what each day brings;
As love keeps you in control,
For healthy body and soul.

I have of no greater joy,
From the love that you employ;
Walking in faith in a way,
That will prevent you to stray.

You are doing such good deeds,
Catering to those with needs;
We all must be more like Christ,
So time can be sacrificed.

It is only right to take,
The time to serve which will make;
For what you use then you lack,
The Lord ensures tenfold back
