Whatever is of a good report,
that which brings God praise
think about such things
and your spirit’s they will raise.
For, that which is mindful,
of God’s mercy and grace
are thoughts that our souls
daily need to embrace.
Whatever is eternal,
our minds should think of
visions of what is everlasting
are full of God’s power and love.
For, that which brings strength,
to our faith and hope
are the things that will help us
in this world to better cope.
Whatever is of a good report,
that which brings us cheer
if we think about such things
God to us, will always be near!
~~~~~~~~~~
“Finally, brethren, . . .
whatsoever things are
of good report;
think on these things.”
