Difficult People

Bless those that persecute you,
Bless them and do not curse them;
Slow to anger to construe,
Determined not to condemn.

Be happy with who is glad,
Comfort those who maybe shy;
Be sad with those who are sad,
Dry their tears if they do cry.

Live in harmony with all,
Friendly to humble people;
Help them get up if they fall,
As you tell them the Gospel.

Never think of you as smart,
Or if dumber than they are;
Have compassion in your heart,
Treating all at even par.

Do not pay back with evil,
To someone who did you wrong;
That coerces with the devil,
Making conflicts to prolong.

Focus your thoughts on those things,
That are considered as stately;
The tranquil peace that it brings,
Viewed by others innately.

So as much as possible,
Live in peace and harmony;
For it is real probable,
With a lot of sympathy.

Do not ever take revenge,
Causing you to use your wrath;
Let anger from God avenge,
Trip them up on their own path,

God alone will have the right,
To take revenge on sinners;
For He can handle the fight,
So they would not be winners
