Following God

Ronald Bunch 1982 (Grand Rapids)

Rhymed
Follow Him.
Don’t take your hand from the plough,
But serve him and bow.
God is for us,
Through thick and thin.
We are mankind and not some trash bin.
He loves us.
Treat others how we want to be treated.

Love our neighbor as we love Christ.
Love one another,
Don’t take the wrong path and smother.
Mary is our mother
And Jesus is our brother.

If we take the right path,
Do the math.

Then we’ll be saved
And that’s how the game is played.
Fight the devil,
Don’t be slaved.

Rely on Jesus,
And stop the sin in us.

Be strong like a gorilla.
Be tough.
Be ruff.

We must follow
The skinny path
And not God’s wrath.

Be humble
So you don’t stumble,
Be the good seed, not some weed.
