I urge that supplications,
Be made by all the people;
Their prayers of intercessions,
Thanksgiving in the temple.

For all in high positions,
Lead a peaceful quiet life;
Free from any aggressions,
Free from the trials and strife.

Be godly and dignified,
That is pleasing also good;
Remember the crucified,
In all that is understood.

This is pleasing to His sight,
Honesty to our Savior;
Continue to be upright,
And He will shine His favor.

Show desire all be saved,
With the knowledge of the truth;
No longer sin be enslaved,
Nor that they become uncouth.

There is one mediator,
Who is the Lord Jesus Christ;
One God as the Creator,
Whose Son was sacrificed.

Who was a ransom for all,
Testified in proper time;
Because Adam took the fall,
Jesus paid for our crime.

For this I am a preacher,
And a poet for the Lord;
Rhyming to be a teacher,
And being in one accord.

I speak the truth and not lie,
Having the faith and the hope;
Of a life after I die,
For persevering to cope.
