Humble Yourself

Humble yourself before others as you would before the Lord.
Be not prideful or boastful. Earths treasures do not hoard.
Judge not the poor or look down upon their woes for they are 
all Gods children and he will surely know.
Misuse not the blessings given you in love.
Remember they are poured from heaven up above.
If Jesus were to ask you to give up all you had, would you 
from joy of heart go from riches unto rags?
The gates of hell are open and await the souls of man
so be wary your salvation. Before God one day you'll stand.
