EASTER

Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace is counted wise:
And he that shutteth his lips is deemed a man of understanding 
Seek the lord while he may be found 
Trust in the lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding   
Even a child is known by his doings
Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer 

Even though I am of sin he gave his life for me
Angels are my guardians guiding and praying
Somber days come and go and tests some I fail
Tribulations lord knows well, he save me from hell
Enjoying blessing of Easter, hearts and joy from above
Remembering to serve my master and to return his love

The first six lines are quotes from these bible verses:
PROVERBS 17:28
ISAIAH 55:6
PROVERBS 3:5
PROVERBS 20:11
ROMANS 12:12
