God's Gift For His New Creation - 2 Timothy 1: 7

The God of whom we do adore
has given us a gift to receive
it's one that brings transformation
if we would truly believe

Be rid of all anxious thoughts
believing to have no spirit of fear
these things don't belong to God
so we must not have them near

God's gift is of divine power
such that makes us a new creation
proving God to be Lord of all
for He's birthed us with salvation

Also we receive God 's love
fill our hearts with love divine
this love gives us new desires
so our love actions are our sign

A sound mind also we receive
filled with Godly wisdom and insight
to use in this world for His glory
till Christ returns dressed in white

( ''For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.'')
2 Timothy ch. 1 v. 7 (ESV)
