Take Care

I have searched for truth and wisdom, 
And in all that I have found, 
The teachings of our savior, 
Ring most true and profound, 

Take care in what you think, 
Take care in what you believe, 
Take care in what you share, 
Take care in what you receive, 

Yes I do know better, 
Than to lead others astray, 
Whether due to my fears, 
Or that of which I am afraid. 

I do care what I think, 
I do care what I believe, 
I do care what I share, 
I do care what I receive, 

And should my careless words, 
Cause you unrest and concern, 
I humbly ask forgiveness, 
As I face the fire that burns. 

For I do care what you think, 
I do care what you believe, 
I do care what you share, 
And I do care what you receive.
