Make grace greater,
than your pride
let it become . . .
your earthly guide.
Make humility bigger,
than your ego
let it become . . .
your heart’s credo.
Make courtesy stronger,
than your vanity
let it become . . .
your mind’s canopy.
Make meekness bolder,
than your conceit
let it become . . .
your soul’s heartbeat.
Make grace greater,
let it grow in your heart
then bitterness . . .
won’t even root or start!
~~~~~~~~~
Looking diligently lest any man
fail of the grace of God;
lest any root of bitterness
springing up trouble you,
and thereby many be defiled;
But grow in grace, and in the
knowledge of our Lord
and Saviour Jesus Christ.
To him be glory both now
and for ever. Amen.
