Distich Verse - Psalm 121
REMEMBER
that you must always lift your eyes up to the Lord
for that is where you get your strength
SO
in the depths of your heart
realize your salvation will come from the Lord
for it is said he made Heaven and Earth
RECALL
when you pray the Lord listens
and he watches over you, always
NOW
follow your unique path in this life, knowing
the Lord is holding your hand
he is with you each moment, each day and night
BUT
his demand, ignore all evil and evil ways
for that is the devil's temptation
and he has many faces and many tricks
RATHER
you must keep your soul pure
and the temptation of gold and earthly possession
will pale in your eyes
FOR
it is said that the Lord will be with you on your final day
and then, you will know forevermore
Reference Psalm 121:1-8
