Focus

Focus don't get left behind, it's your time to live and shine
Be good and kind and set your mind on the Lord divine
For in these times the devil will attempt to let you sign 
He is neither good or kind,
He just wants you to waste your precious time
Gold nor Silver will make you contented or whole
But wasting time will surely make you age and grow old
This is not the place or the time for you to whither or decompose
Like the leaves that become lifeless and cold in winter time
Don't be cruel, absent minded and heartless in these crucial times
The devil will try to let you give up and sign
Therefore focus and set your mind only on the Lord divine
For in these dark times the devil will seek to let you loose your mind
He only wants for you to waste your time
Thinking that God hasn't got you in his mind but that is untrue and so unkind
For God always have you in his precious mind.
