Lies & Lying Poem by Randy McClave

If you deliberately tell a lie
There will then be shame in your eye,
Soon you will be known as a liar
And you're undoubtedly heading for hell's fire.

A lie is weapon called deceit
It is used to harm and used and to defeat,
It is the devils greatest tool
It even makes a Christian become a fool.

If you deliberately tell a lie as the truth
Then you have bitten into an evil fruit,
If you applaud evil when you hear its lies
Then you become the devils greatest prize.

A lie is told when someone is lying
It's used when honesty is hidden or dying,
For themselves they lost all respect
Now the teachings of Jesus they neglect.

If you believe a lie as honesty
I then pity you for your ignorance and stupidity,
Remember the lie told to Adam and Eve
That is how the devil did first use and deceive.

A lie cannot ever make you a winner
It only makes you a sinner,
Remember, it was created just for evil
It was created and first used my the devil.
