GUARD YOUR GARDEN
by Bill Kochman

Even though we all love Jesus,
Sometimes we will drift away,
So many things in this world,
Often entice us to go astray.
It may creep up rather slowly,
It’s not so bad we will pretend,
But oh if we fail to be careful,
It will drag us away in the end.
At first we won’t even notice,
It will seem like a small thing,
One little weed in our garden,
But alas disaster it will bring.
Just one sin or disobedience,
Beware that’s all it ever takes,
And then before you know it,
You’re drowning in mistakes.
So watch out for that old Devil,
If he should knock on your door,
Just give his thoughts no mind,
Remember who you fight for.
Let your eyes look only forward,
And not to the left or to the right,
Your Father above will keep you,
Safely through the darkest night.
