Be a Lighthouse
Be a Lighthouse
(Words are Cheap, Tongues are Loose,
And Man is surrounded by Darkness.)

“Two Wrongs Don’t Make a Right”
But one “Loose Tongue” can provoke a fight.
Often poorly chosen words create a doubter,
If suspect words are “All Shot and no Powder”
While “Man May Work From Sun to Sun,” *
Wagging “A Tongue Doesn’t Get Things Done”
“Probability of Helping Someone with Your Tongue is Low”
But in each situation we should let God’s Love show.
A rattling tongue’s song, can never be unsung,
Only “A man who has mastered his heart,
Has mastered his tongue”
* “But a woman’s work is never done”
