My Favourite Quote

WHAT KIND of MAN?


Regardless of cost your word must be true
To all it was freely given.
If you only thrive on self-serving joys
You’ll miss your bus to Heaven.

You can cultivate or destroy life’s conditions
Which decide who will mourn your fate.
You can provide, teach, protect and preserve
A life free of mistrust, selfishness and hate.

What kind of a man do you wish to be
As the footsteps of life race by?
Never hold back kind acts of love
And compassion before you die.

Without the aid of human failings
Satan couldn’t accomplish one dark deed.
Evil loves to misguide the wits of man
With jealously, distrust and greed.

No man is born to make the world suffer
It’s something he acquires along the way.
Only through grace, prayer and repentance
Can he avoid Satan’s foulness at play.
