Salvation
On the Way
When
I’ve inDulged my Self in pleasant Junk, I’ve played so
foolishly... and caused some Pain. My Ship is getting Gradually Sunk,
while I’ve Bound Me inside with ball-and-Chain! The Key ta Life and
Freedom’s Loving All, espesh’lly Buddha-Christ, the Living Truth;
so best Be Sure to Answer Lov-ing’s Call – the Wisest bravely Cop
in Tender Youth!
So
Choose the Blest: the Life, and Truth, and Way, and gently Discipline
Your-Self in Love. Be kind to You in Work, and Rest, and Play, and
Ev’ry sorry Woe, You’ll rise aBove! Let’s Share the fruits of
Peace and Freedom ‘round, let All the fearsome Hate and Tempers
cool; let’s Pray so each and All of us git Found – may Justice,
Truth, and Mercy Ever Rule!
And
When you’ve Stayed-the-Course, and Life is Done, may You still KNOW
the Savior Sweet-and-True; may Life then Glow just Like the Setting
Sun, and Heaven’s Peace and Glory Wait-for-You!
