Christian Living amongst Outsiders

Always be submissive rulers,
Sanctioned to be obedient;
Ready to work as counselors,
Judgment in being expedient.

Speak not to any one evil,
Avoid quarrels but be gentle;
Avoiding works of the devil,
Those things that are detrimental.

Show courtesy with humbleness,
Don’t be foolish to go astray;
Anything causing stressfulness,
That a servant would disobey.

Be not lustful to a passion,
Sights and sounds of earthly pleasures;
Passing days in malice fashion,
Envious of other treasures.

When love from God our Savior,
The kindness towards man does appear;
His glory shines on you with favor,
Be worshipful as you revere.

He saved us not from the works done,
Rather by faith through righteousness;
Washing of regeneration,
His Spirit renews graciousness.

He pours out on us abundantly,
Through Jesus Christ our Savior;
His glory flowing fervently,
Giving a humbled behavior.

We are justified by His grace,
So that we are becoming heirs;
For the hope that we can embrace,
An inheritance that He shares.
