The Children Of Grace

He came to testify to you,
That you not walk as others do.
A prisoner of Christ was he,
A messenger of unity.

A Greek physician was his scribe,
Who penned epistles for each tribe.
For the Ephesians Paul would say:
Be no more children, tossed this way.

But we are all children of wrath
For Eve and Adam’s broken path.
We can’t be saved by deed alone,
As every sin we hide is known.

Do not give place to the devil.
Evil’s plane is never level.
He’ll appoint you judge and jury,
And make your heart beat with fury!

For that road leads to infamy.
It’s paved with vice and blasphemy.
But Jesus walked another road,
Where virtues were the seeds He sowed!

Salvation was our gift from Christ,
The day our Lord was sacrificed!
In faith, let us be unified.
Through His blood we are fortified.

Do not pursue the call of sin,
Speak truth in love unto your kin.
For crafty is the viper’s tongue.
It will beguile both old and young.

It will not cease until the end,
Its doctrine carried on the wind.
So give no power to deceit,
A thieving hand will know defeat.

But those who seek Salvation’s grace,
Will, one day, look upon His face,
And know the measure of His gift;
As earthly sin is set adrift.

So cast aside iniquity.
Be kind with all sincerity.
Put wrath forever in its place.
As you become children of Grace!
