The Words of Truth

Each day we live upon this earth
we get closer to our death
We should live our life for the love of Christ
until the day of our last breath.

And, when we have the love of Christ
dwelling deep within our heart
Is when we'll know His plan for us
and, how His plan will start.

His plan consists of several things
for each He gives a task
He will always show us what to do
we just need to pray and ask.

We must help the people who do not see
and, the people that do not know.
We must show them the way to the city of gold.
We must show them the way to go.

There are ones that will never listen
and, these burdens we should not bare
Just know when we hold the words of truth
these words we all must share.
