Live as Though...

"See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil...Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." (Eph. 5: 15-16; James 4: 14)

Live as Though,

You are not you own!

Live every day,

As a precious gift on loan!

Live as though-

To be missed by all!

Waste no time-

Fulfilling your God given call!

Live for only One;

The Lord Jesus Christ!

For God's only begotten Son;

Be a living sacrifice!

Live with godly fire,

by melting cold hearts!

Live only to inspire,

The blessing it imparts!

Live with determined vision,

Extracting nectar from its flower!

Live with this purpose,

And sweet will be its power!

Live as though,

The Lord were to come today!

Live with this Hope,

For there is no time to delay!
