Remember Your Mind Still Matters

In this world, we can feel small
thinking others more clever than you
if we listen to their interactional voices
inferior is out feeling that needs to undo

Remember God gave you a mind
not to be neglected and left alone
it's for your benefit in all your life
use it in all matters even if blown

Educate yourself even if elderly
it's never too late to learn anew
find good books and magazines
show that you've still got the clue

God most importantly sent His son
to come and spread God's message
so those who believe receive His spirit
have the mind of Christ to eternally engage

What a privilege we've been given
remember your mind (still) matters
created in God's image even your brain
so trust Him fully your mind won't shatter
