Analysis of Our Lord



God is the greater power, He is life,
Fear Him, obey Him, get rid of your strife.

Be happy, thankful, joyful, and jolly,
Being selfish and ungrateful is to be folly.

Look at what God gave up for all of us here,
All he asks for is pleasantries and to be sincere.

Be still and listen for His wisdom is great
Whether your rich or poor God will not hate.

Our day will come there’s nothing you can change,
It’s all in God’s plan I know it sounds strange.

Read the bible to understand it better,
There are messages, passages, and even letters.

Life is too short to go on being mean,
Forgive, love, understand and be serene.
