SPEAKING OF SALVATION
Be not masters of many things
but masters of peace
the Lord's spirit is perfect peace,
we praise with one tongue
and curse with the same
this thing ought not be
blessed are the peacemakers
they shall be called the children of God,
this is how we will be known
assembling ourselves
and praising his name
drawing closer to his Holy throne,
man has mastered all the seas
and every creature that moves
yet he has not mastered his tongue,
for if he did he would let his praises
ring to God's only begotten son,
man's tongue has the power
to send his soul to Hell
or to grant his soul eternal life
thru praise I choose
the delights of Heaven
over Hell's envies and strife.
