Cast the First Stone
Every day people talk about other people,
talking trash about them behind their backs
However, when it comes down to the face to face,
most of the time they won't repeat what they have said
All of a sudden, it's " hey, how ya doing or,
long time no see, or hows the family,
when not the very day or hour before
they were putting the bad mouth on that person
Some of these people say they are Christians, Yet,
they don't practice that very way of life, that
they say they believe in, yet say Amen
they say Grace before meals, and thank God
Yet, not five minutes later, if that sometimes,
they will start talking trash about someone
never anything nice, only some sin that person committed
during this wind blowing, they will even take the Lords name in vain
To these people I would like to say,
God is the only TRUE Judge, so judge not
Love thy neighbor as thyself, so Shut It!
and " Let he without sin, Cast the First Stone!"
