SAY NOT YOU’LL PRAY – JUST PRAY
Pray for your friend, but speak no words out loud,
For to say you pray is for your own self done,
For he who seeks to pray before a crowd,
Promotes what God has willed all men to shun.
We all desire to be known as someone good,
Thereby seek ways to tell folk that we care,
So being nice to others might or would,
Make us noticed almost everywhere.
Few folk know themselves enough to state,
That they are what they think they really are,
They fail to see their own biases and hate,
And errors when they frequently occur
Few folk are humble yet would Christians be,
‘Tis not enough that you say you pray for me
