Fountain of Life

Those who stray will plan evil,
Showing what is in their heart;
As controlled by the devil,
No matter what they impart.

But those who are merciful,
Faithfully plan what is good;
Their thinking is beautiful,
The same way that the Lord would.

Hard work always gains something,
Evidence of achievement;
But idle talk will just bring,
Broken hearts and bereavement.

The crown of the wise people,
Will be their abundant wealth;
Not visiting a temple,
For lack of spiritual health.

The stupidity of fools,
Is just measured by folly;
Never following the rules,
Nor feeling melancholy.

An honest witness saves lives,
Telling what is known as truth;
Having wisdom and is wise,
Polite and never uncouth.

But the one who always lies,
Is dangerous and at risk;
Exposing through their disguise,
With a downfall that is brisk.

Strong confidence comes from God,
Built from a fear of the Lord;
If we do honor and laud,
As He is loved and adored.

Take refuge as His child,
By showing fear in the Lord;
Embracing you so mild,
Let not His touch be ignored.

Fear is the fountain of life,
Turns away the grasp of death;
Easing the stress from the strife,
Giving life past the last breath.
