My Tongue Within a Temple

The tongue is a real danger if used when out of control it needs to be held so very firm for truly it can damage your soul Scripture says tongue can't be tamed a deadly poison that takes no rest for it blesses God and curses man it needs a bridle to hold it in nest O to have a tongue in my control making every word true and pure sending forth goodness and mercy to make every ear receive its cure But the tongue's evil starts within deep down in our inner heart there it originates from Adam's seed from where Satan flings his fiery dart So for my tongue to fit my temple Jesus needs to cleanse it by His blood so only then can God receive it wash it clean in His crimson flood
