Salt Is Good--
Everyone’s going through a refining fire
Sooner or later,
But hold on
Be solid, whole
Be well-preserved
Protected from the eternal flames
Salt is Good worth
Salt is Good worthy
if it loses its saltiness;
It can’t season anything.
So don’t lose your flavour!
My child
My brothers, sisters
But hold on
Be solid, whole
Be well-preserved
Protected from the eternal flames
Be preservatives yourselves Preserve the peace
Live in peace with each other
Alleluia, Amen
Salt is good. But if the salt loses its saltiness
How will you season it?
Have salt in yourselves, yourself
And have peace with one another.”
Faithfulness does sometimes disturb the peace
And peace is sometimes obtained
Salt is good and salt useful
But if salt has lost its purpose, How will you make it salty?
Again within yourselves
Continually, and be at peace with one another
So don’t lose your flavour!
My child
My brothers, sisters
But hold on
Be solid, whole
Be well-preserved
Protected from the eternal flames
Be preservatives yourselves Preserve the peace
Live in peace with each other
Alleluia, Amen
