Holiness Unto The Lord Poem by Michael P. Johnson

The law of god is in the heart
To cherish and obey
Christ said no word would ever part
Until the judgement day

We must be holy to the Lord -1Co.1: 2
Allow God’s son to reign - Ex.31: 13
As kings and priests we can’t afford - Rev.1: 6
To soil our robes again

We must be holy, void of lie -1Th.4: 7
Reject all wayward sin
When pure of heart we’ll then deny
The devil entry in

Our every thought is like a shout
For God can hear the mind -Ps.94: 9
Each sin He sees without a doubt
For neither is He blind -2Ch.16: 9

True holiness is God’s command -Lev.11: 44
No man may disobey
If we would walk the Promised Land
We must prepare today -1Jn.3: 3

Too many say it can’t be done
Perfection’s not for man
But yet the bible says God’s Son -1Pe.1: 16
Will foil the devil’s plan Heb.-2: 14

To show the way, God sent His Light -Jn.8: 12
His word, is here to teach -Jn.1: 5
True holiness, is in man’s sight
And not beyond his reach

So make a stand, come join the fight
The time has come to choose
When loving God with all our might
We’ll see the devil lose.
