Do not say anything,
That would hurt another;
Agony it might bring,
With tears to a brother.
Speak only what is good,
To enable to give;
The assistance that would,
For helping them to live.
So whatever you say,
Will help all those who hear;
Put their trust and not stray,
As well as calming fear.
Put away the falsehood,
Speak the truth to each one;
So it is understood,
Of the love through the Son.
Show anger but sin not,
Let not to allow wrath;
After sundown you ought,
Bring peace onto your path.
For when the darkness grows,
Gives Satan an invite;
As your anger then shows,
Access into your night.
Never give His Spirit,
Reason to be upset;
For what you inherit,
Might not be what you get.
His seal is upon you,
For when you are set free;
As your thoughts will be true,
Without sin that you see.
Get rid of bitterness,
Loud tempers and railing;
For certain God will bless,
So you have smooth sailing.
