hear me
Hear me brethren, please give me an ear.
Listen to me, even what I speak here.
Please hear me, for the sake of your life.
I plea to all men, please end your strife.
Listen to me speak of a life without end.
To understand more, an ear you must lend.
I am but a man, that and no more.
A servant of God I have been since he showed me the door.
My Lord is the alpha and omega, both the beginning and end.
To him open your heart, and your wounds he will mend.
Riches he offers far beyond compare.
For, Jesus, his son has paid our fare.
Serve him with your mind, body, and soul.
Only then will you have riches untold.
Acknowledge him in all of thy ways.
Then shall you find wisdom, understanding, and add length to thy days.
Chisel his word on the tablet of thine heart.
And all of thy evil ways depart.
Long did I wander and ever was I lost.
For the time I wandered so high was the cost.
But the lord he did find me and now I know him.
And my life has been blessed, even since then.
He ended my troubles and silenced my fears.
Ever will I love and serve him for all of my years.
Righteous he is and justice he gives.
To all of who by his law lives.
Greatest of all is the Lord my god, praise him above all praise, for of all he is Lord.
He is the peace bringer he needs not the sword.
At his command the wind it does still.
As he commands I shall do his will.
At his will the earth breaks up and the waters recede.
He looks after his servants and fulfills their needs.
He commands all, and he is master of time.
It is of him that I speak my rhyme.
Everlasting life he offers to all men.
My god I put above all in my life, forever. Amen.
