The Power of Words

gods-book.com


The words we hear when others speak 
describe a story of their own critique

When we hear the words they use to define
It has influences on the thoughts in our mind

These words are used to describe their prospective 
They explain the meaning behind their objective

Understanding the meaning of the words they recite
You should be vigilant if their persuasion is spite

Words are defining by how they are used
When we hear what is said it changes our views

Maybe it's something you hear for the first time 
Or could be a story familiar to your mind

Either way, when we hear these things said 
It has an impact on the thoughts in our head

The same is true when the storyteller is you  
Its influence on those hearing words you use 

The power of words can never be matched 
The way they’re used and its powerful impact 

Words have the ability to hinder or heal
To change our mood and the way that we feel


How they are used can hurt or cause harm 
Humiliate, embarrass and rob one of charm 

The power of words can lift us up high
Used the right way and what they imply

Words have influenced the way we are 
How we view ourselves be it defeat or self-regard

Words were used to teach everything we know
 The tool for learning and making us grow  

They influenced the persons we’ve all become
 The words we’ve heard that made us succumb 

Words are powerful and we should all show care 
In how we use them for the things we share

The impact they have when taken the wrong way 
Are sometimes hurtful from things we say

So, choosing words with consideration in mind 
To those hearing them make you seem kind

When others are subjects of something you’ve said 
Think how you would feel if it were you instead

So use positive words to describe your appeal
And thoughtful words defining how you feel
