Before you lived in the dark,
But now you live in the light;
God guides you where you embark,
As you stay within His sight.
Live as children of the light,
Light produces all that is good;
Always do things that are right,
Honoring Him as you should.
God will give His approval,
As long as you remain true;
Along with sin removal,
Giving insight to construe.
Determine what pleases God,
Avoid the darkness pleasures;
They cause you to become flawed,
Hoarding immoral treasures.
Expose them for what they are,
Showing of what they are worth;
And how they will make a scar,
That will block from your rebirth.
It is shameful to gossip,
Of another in secret;
It is poison on your lip,
That later you will regret.
Light exposes true character,
All that is seen and unseen;
The Lord is your instructor,
All that is now and has been.
So wake up all you sleepers,
And rise up out of your bed;
Being spiritual leapers,
Before you find yourself dead.
Let Jesus Christ within you,
Always for everything;
Filled with the Spirit and true,
To the Lord all He will bring.
