Faith
A gift given by God.
Have faith in the ones you love,
and the ones you don’t even know.
Have faith in the Lord above,
have faith in his eternal soon.
Friendship
There is no friend greater than the Father.
Your friends are all around you,
they’re everywhere you look.
But the greatest friend of all,
is the author of the Holy Book.
Forgiveness
A gift intended to ease the heart.
It isn’t always easy letting grudges go,
God does it daily to ease our heavy souls.
You should do it out of kindness,
as a simple gratitude.
Do it for the Lord,
not for a simple reward.
