The Code

Be still my soul and know the truth:
Love makes you whole in body proof.


Be willing now to see the light:
Faith does endow the path of sight.


Be faithful then and find the way:
Hope tells you when to work fond play.


Be hopeful now in your affairs:
Joy works somehow to charge the air.


Be calm of heart when things go wrong:
Love will forge art to make you strong.


Be humble then when ego shouts:
You know not when the light goes out.


Be true and clear to touch each face:
Live with sure cheer that comes from grace.


Be not a judge to plunder hurts:
Learn not to smudge a person's dirt.


Be kind to all who journey here:
Each lives some gall and troubling tears.


Be true to you and live good heart:
Share then your dues as affluence starts.


Be a good friend that sees the good:
Bear blessings grand in praying mood.


Be a bright fire that warms all hearts:
You can inspire a precious start.


Be of good cheer when end comes near:
Be without fear for love lives here.


Be brave and bold to face the task:
Life can be cold if you must ask.


Be sure of this as you live quest:
Love funds a bliss where peace works best.


Live then the code beyond all laws:
Love fits the mode to transcend flaws.
