Titus

The Letter to Titus Rhymes
With faith in God, whose word does light us
Paul sent a message off to Titus

Peace be upon you as you search
For blameless men to lead the church

Men patient, friendly, self-controlled
Steadfastly to the Word they hold

For they must teach and clarify
Rebuking those espousing lies

Teach temperance, a creed correct
Be sober, worthy of respect

Be sound in faith, in love, endure
Don't slander but be kind and pure

Teach reverence and to take good care
That what they learn they then should share

In everything do what is good
Speak soundly so you're understood

Don't steal from those you're subject to
But please them to show what is true

Important that you live this way
Give others nothing bad to say

To all of us God gives the grace
To be controlled in all we face

He purified us, grace not earned
And now we wait for his return

Remind the people: heed the law
Don't focus on another's flaw

Do good and show humility
Be gentle with tranquility

Once we were disobedient
Were worldly and expedient

Took crooked paths instead of straight
We lived in malice, envy, hate

But when by love our Savior came
He gave us a new life to claim

Avoid divisiveness, wrote Paul
May God's good grace be with you all
