Everyone Should Be Quick To Listen Hear Now And Heed
Slow To Speak, Also Slow To Anger In Word And Deed.
Anger Does Not Yield A Life Praised By The Lord,
So Get Rid Of All Sin And Humbly Accept God’s Word.
If You Listen, But Do Not Practice, You’ll Go Astray,
Like A Man Who Looks In A Mirror, Then Goes Away.
You Must Keep Looking; God’s Word Will Set You Free.
Don’t Forget What You’ve Heard, But Do It, And Blessed You’ll Be.
If You Think You’re A Model Christian, Yet Speak Too Free,
If Your Tongue Has No Rein, Faith’s Worthless; You’ve Been Deceived.
Here’s Faith The Father Accepts As Pure And True:
Help The Needy, Keep From Defilement In All You Do.
