Thy Sting, Thy Victory

Great is the reward
Of the pure in heart.  Their
Deeds done in truth

Will follow them
Into Life after
Life everlasting and
Life in this time.  They will

Receive
An hundredfold
Indeed - But with many persecutions.
So continue doing unto others
Even as you would have them do unto

You, especially to those
Of the household of faith and to those who
Use and
Revile you and as you

Lay up these treasures
In Heaven, you will heap coals of Fire upon 
Enemies' heads

Until good
Prevails.
