Give It Up For The Good
Give it up for the good, we no longer partake in what's wrong.  We have made up our minds, not to cause people harm.
Give it up for the good, we refuse to go down the road called "Drugs."  Instead,  we assist the homeless, we even pass out hugs.
Give it up for the good, we spend time to help stop the senseless shooting, that's killing our sisters and brothers.  We now have a heart, to care about one another.
Give it up for the Good, to mentor children who cannot read.  We are beginning to step up to the plate, so everyone can lead.
Give it up for the good, to help bring about a change.  Everyone need to join in unity, so this can be arranged.

Born To Be Free
You are born to be free and happy, and not to be in *******, by those who wants you to be.
You are born to be free and productive throughout our land.  God chose to create you with precious and unique hands.
You are born to be free, and use what's on your mind.  It's important to move forward, and not be left behind.
You are born to be free, and help uplift those who are down.  Make sure you encourage everyone that may come around.
You are born to be free, and not locked up in a cage.  Something need to be done, about those who constantly go into a rage.
You are born to be free, and not continue to be depressed.  If so, cry out to God, He will give you rest.

GOING TO THE DOCTOR
WHEN YOU GO TO THE HOSPITAL, THE DOCTOR DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG.  YET, HE PRESCRIBE SOME STRANGE PILLS, THAT'S ABOUT TO CAUSE YOU HARM.
WHEN YOU GO TO THE DOCTOR, HURTING FROM HEAD TO TOE.  WHEN ASK THE DOCTOR WHAT'S GOING ON, HE REPLY, "I DON'T KNOW."
WHEN GOING TO THE DOCTOR, 99% OF THE TIME THEY TYPE.  I DON'T EVEN REMOVE MY CLOTHES, SO THEY CAN TELL ME WHAT'S NOT RIGHT.
WHEN YOU GO TO THE DOCTOR, THERE IS SOMETHING YOU WILL SEE.  JUST STEP UP TO THE WINDOW, SO YOU CAN PAY THE FEE.

It's Time
It's time to move on, just don't stand still.  If you think you are not able, just use your will.  
It's time to come out of darkness, emerge into the light.  Now you can see clearly, how to do what's right.
It's time to encourage others, to travel down the right road.  While you are encouraging, help carry your brother's load.
It's time to teach others, how to love one another.  When God created us, He made us all sisters and brothers.
It's time to be that example, before a generation beginning to learn.  It may not be easy, you may have to be firm.

Our Praise to God
As we sing unto God, let it be with our whole heart.  Though we are going through, never let our prayer life depart.
God is so worthy, to receive all the praise.  No matter  all of out trials, still allow our hands to be raised.
Let's sing aloud, so the entire world can hear.  Let them join in, as they draw near.  
May we hate sin, but rejoice in your Holy Light.  May the sinners turn around, and begin to do what's right.
May we never be afraid of what we have to go through.  May we realize Lord, all things comes from you.

The children are all clean and bathed, before putting them into bed.  Just before going to sleep, the family's prayer is said.
When the peaceful day arrive, the breakfast is all fixed.  She says to everyone, "Here's a place to sit."
She walks the children to the bus stop, hoping it will soon come.  In her mind she's thinking, "I have errands to run."
While preparing the family's dinner, the telephone began to ring.  She cuts the message short, she has a house to clean.
One thing she remembers; she made this note a rule.  She will take time out, to visit her children's School.
After arriving home again, her children have something to say.  She takes the time to listen, concerning their day.

Just A Vapor
We are just a vapor, in the eyes of God.  Don't ever live so high, if you plan to go above.
We are just a bubble, no need to boast in Pride.  This is something the Lord hates, when presented before his Eyes.
We are just a piece of grass , that's why we fade away.  Remember to stay humble, in all you do and say.
We are only nothing, compared to the Almighty God.  We should never think that we are "All That." Don't make God use his "Rod".

What would you do, if you didn't have to pay bills?  After all this is something, you have been doing for years.
What would you do with the extra money; you will have to spent?  Would you finally sleep at night, having peace within?
What would you do, finally taking a deep breath?  You will have time to save, and work toward having wealth.
What would you do with the money in your pocket?  Would you do a good deed, escorting the homeless to the Market?
What would you do with the extra cash on hand?  Can you think of an incentive, to promote healing in our land?
What would you do, to finally be free?  No longer paying bills, now I can branch out, to be what I want to be.

Talking Back
Children should know their place, when it come to talking back.  Having respect for others is  something they should not lack.
They should be taught at an early age, to stay out of adults conversations.  It may be friends, family members, or other relations.
When teenagers talk back, it really make them look bad.  It's important not to walk around, causing people to be sad.
You suppose to be an example, for those who are younger than you.  Be a good role model, in all that you choose to do.

This time around, will people be treated with respect?  Will you refrain from getting angry, getting people upset?
This time around, will you take care of the poor?  Will you provide a contribution, when they knock on your door?
This time around, will you share your smile?  Will you go out your way, to go the extra mile?
This time around, will you show that you care?  If someone really needed you, will you try to be there?
This time around, will you be determined to change?  At the end of the year, would you have lived up to your name?

Who Looks Up to You
I am going to give you a chance, to began to use your mind.  Are there people who looks up to you, are they around all the time?
While people look up to you, are you training them right?  Are you a good example behind their backs, as well as in their sight?
When people looks up to you, be a person of integrity.  Always be honest in everybody's eyes, because they copy what they see.

A Heart to Teach
You must have a heart to teach the children who attend our schools.  They will know if you mean business, before they attempt to break the rules.
You must have a heart to teach, when you set out for a Degree.  The final test will come, from the class that makes you want to flee.
You must have a heart to teach, when dealing with children from a different background.  Will you be willing to stay, even though you may be put down.
You must have a heart to teach, dealing with the good and the bad.  Will you be willing to stick around, until the day they make you glad.

If you live to see the New Year, are you planning on helping mankind?  Or, is this ideal something, far from your mind?
If you live to see the New Year, will we see a new attitude?  Or, will you continue to act mean, and continue acting rude.

TAKING A PILL
Why would you take a pill, that cause you to commit suicide?  Wake up and observe, what's before your eyes?
Why would you take a pill, to cause your eyes to go blind?  Why take a chance, to pick them up, waiting in a long line?
Why would you take a pill, to cause you to have diarrhea?  Why do you want to dehydrate your body, hoping it will disappear?
Why would you take a pill, that could cause you memory lost?  It will not be worth it, no matter the cost.
Why would you take a pill, that can damage every nerve?  It's important what I'm writing, and that  every word be heard.

SHOOTING IN OUR SCHOOLS
Why do we attend our Schools, shouldn't it be to learn?  There are those who have the wrong idea, we end up going on their term.
They come into the building, with no good on their minds.  As they spot out the Gym or Cafeteria, they're prepared to commit a crime.
They take out evil weapons, such as a knife or gun.  The students and staff are so filled with fear, they began to run.
Why do we attend our Schools, somehow the shooter believes a lie?  In his mind he began to think," Today people have to die."
Why do we continue to have "Copy Cats," to repeat these scenes over again?  Something really need to be done, about suffering from other men sins.

Turning Bad Into Good
So you got a report card, that was pretty bad.  The next time it can be made good, in your studies with your Mom and Dad.
So you got a bad report, concerning your clean white teeth.  Maybe, you need to floss everyday, at the top and floss beneath.
So you got a bad report, about not getting a job.  There are other places to search, instead of sitting down to sob. 
So you got a bad report that someone stole your car.  Just call the insurance adjuster, then you'll be able to go far.
So you got a bad report, don't let it be the end of everything.  Take your time and relax, I'm sure something can be arranged.

Losing Control
You should quickly get help, before you lose control.  If  you do, you can endanger your life, by someone who are bold.
You may need a Doctor, to release stress off your mind.  You don't want to lose control, with an explosion in your head, at the very wrong time.
We live in a world, where the least thing can offend.  You should always be in control, so you do not have to bend.
Once you lose control, no one is safe.  You will not be trusted, but viewed as a person that causes waste.
Losing control will make you do anything.  Especially, things that's evil, in the back behind the scene.

You wonder at times, why am I here?  Your life is designed by God, to Him you are so dear.
Before you were born, God had a special plan for you.  He knew someday, He had work for you to do.
As you live your life, you are constantly being directed.  You may get off track at times, but He will send correction.
Our life is like a puzzle, it takes God to put us in place.  We are designed to play a part, in the human race.
You are design for a special reason.  You could start today, because this could be your Season.

Keen Eyes
In this world we are living in, we should have keen eyes.  They can save your life, so don't be one of those who dies.
Danger is all around us; some people are very mean.  This is the reason I urge you, make sure your eyes are keen.
We must always be alert; some people act insane.  They could care less about you; not even your name.
You need keen eyes, when you go out at night.  There are those who roam in the night, not willing to do what's right.
After the experience of 9/11, we can never be too careful.  This is only small advice; I do hope it is helpful.

During the final week of school, everyone is very glad.  You may find a few teary eyes, and only a few that's sad.
You're hoping that everyone will be nice and kind, refraining from starting fights.
You are aware of every child, hoping they will not get out of your sight.
Even, the custodian hope her walls remain nice and clean.  So far, everything seem to look good; no marks or scars are seen.
On that very last day of school, the staff are waiting patiently with relaxed nerves.
They are waiting outside with the children, for all the buses to come around the curves.

Save Our Children
Save our children, from the destruction that lie ahead.  When you look around, so many are dead.
Save our children, help keep them from brutal fights.  We need to shield them, from restless nights.
Save our children, from sleeping in the streets.  Help provide them meals, so they can have food to eat.
Save our children, so they can excel.  Help teach them wisdom, to keep them out of jail.
Save our children, hear my humble cry.  Don't stand idly by, and watch each one die.
Save our children, they are not in the way.  The most important thing you can do is to bow your head and pray.

Living On the Edge
Some people go to the extreme living on the edge.  They seem to get a rush, jumping off the ledge.
They'll drive their car through flames of fire, as though it was a breeze.  You'll see them speed right to their death, after they turn the keys.
They have no fear of climbing, to the very peak.  Perhaps a little advice would help, if only they will seek.
Don't cheat yourself out of life, it's given to be enjoyed.  Constantly, stirring death in the face, it has no type  of reward.

X-Ray of Life
People can see through you, so give them something beautiful to see.  Allow them to behold, all they desire to be.  
A smile, a touch , a kind salutation.  You  will never know the impact; you have on this present generation.
Your soft spoken voice is felt in every word.  Continue to resound you speech, so it can clearly be heard.
Let ii resound in the light, and the dark corners of the streets.  Let it be heard in places, where all types of people meet.  Let it be heard, far across the world.  Just like a flying discus, while it's being hurled.
Life is here today, but tomorrow it will fade away.  You will always be remembered, for the precious words that you say.

Who Has the Final Say
My sister lay in the Hospital bed, breathing on her own.  I don't see any tubes around, from the Doctor, bad seeds are sown.
They have stopped feeding her solid food, and no food into her veins.  What about this picture I see, to me it is insane.
The Doctor has taken off his white jacket, and put on the robe of God.  I believe he better be very careful, before God decide to use His Rod.  As long as there is breath in a person's body, do you realize there is still hope?  During your moments of waiting, God gives you strength to cope.
Lazarus lay in the tomb, for three long days, in that smelly grave.  There was still hope for even him, because the Life Giver stood by him, Mighty and Powerful to save.

There are children, who future will be bright.   They refuse to engage in lies; truth is before their sight.

Why do you choose to go to jail, when you can be free.  By now, you should know in life, what you want to be.
Do you realize, you're causing your family pain?  Not only that, you're giving them a bad name.
They have to take time out, to go purchase you socks, T-shirts and underwear.  Do you realize what you take them through, or do you really care?
Some people have been going to jail, from their younger days.  Now that they are sixty years old, they have not change their ways.

Seeds of Prayer
In a special room put aside for prayer in the wee hours I went to pray. My three young sons came to join me one by one, holding their pillows each day.
As they climbed into bed each night, I played the Bible tapes, so the Word of God could fill they heads.   Their souls were being constantly edified, as the words were being read.
Now that my sons are grown, they became Ministers of God.  It truly give me great joy watching them, when they are preaching about the Lord.
It is important to train our children in the word, at an early age.  Then you will watch them develop into men and women of God, when they reach that final stage.

Born A Girl
I was born a little girl, my parents were very proud.  I was born on New Year's Day; the excitement was very loud.
The "Daily Press" interviewed my parents, because I was one of the first to be born.  They presented my parents with a necklace of my birth announcement, so around my neck it was worn.
I wore that special necklace, until I finished High School.  It was so precious, it was something I thought I would never lose.
I'm so glad I was born a girl; I will never be ashamed.  I am glad also, that they gave me a precious name.  (Sandra Juanita Knight, Helper of Mankind).

Lend Me Your Ear

When he was asked, "How is everything?"  An alarm went off, in this particular man's brain.
You instantly could tell, he was loaded down with stress.  The side that we saw of him was not his very best.
He began talking, on, and on, and on, about what went on that day.  Everyone could hear every word, about what he had to say.
I believe it's important, to lend someone your listening ear.  We need to sacrifice the time to listen, especially, when they come near.
You will never know the impact that you have on man.  Be attentive and listen; he's drowning, help him stand.

Water
Water was given to man, it's important that we use it.  There is no need to walk around, making others sick.
Water is a cleanser; why not take a drink?  It will help cleanse every cell, allowing you to think.
Water can revive, even a dying man.  Check out the ones you see, out in the desert sand.
Water can be daily used, to keep you clean and refreshed.  It will make you feel  so good, therefore, you can do your best.

RUFUSE OTHERS TO BIND YOU
Don't be bound, by those who would bind you.  Fight to remain free, in everything you do.
Don't be bound, by those who would hold you back.  No matter the pressure, please don't allow them, to cause you to crack.
Don't be bound, by those who do not care.  You can find these people, just about everywhere.
Don't be bound, by those who would get you high.  Keep your mind clean, so you don't have to die.
Don't be bound, by those who live to fight.  Stand up and be bold, to the things you know are right.

ASK YOURSELF
Ask yourself, have I touched someone's life today?  Have I found a comfortable place, for the homeless to stay?
Ask yourself, how was my attitude?  Was I polite, or was I very rude?
Ask yourself, did I share a smile?  And the one who needed help, did I go the extra mile?
Ask yourself, are people glad when I come around?  Or, do they turn in another direction, because I make them feel down?
Ask yourself, today did I do my best?  Or, did I look to find ways, so I could do less?
Ask yourself, when the Father made me, why was I on His mind?   Was it to assist His creation, and all of mankind?

Are You Serious!
Are you serious, about making a change?  Are you tired of shooting and killing, because of the street gangs?
Are you serious, about getting a job?  Are you tired of going into stores, for the purpose to rob?
Are you serious, about finishing High School?  Are you tired of dropping out, after breaking all the rules?
Are you serious, about telling the truth?  Are you tired of lying, something started from your youth?
Are you serious, about living a new life?  Are you tired of doing wrong, and now you intend to do right?

Quick, Quick
When it comes to helping people, run quickly to save a life.  Keep the person from drowning, before he is out of sight.
If you hear screaming, quickly call the police.  They may be seriously in trouble, needing some type of release.
If a building is on fire, don't just watch where you stand.  If you can give your assistance, lend a helping hand.
If someone has fallen, just don't linger around.  Assist in helping the person, get up off the ground.
If someone need your help, please don't walk slow.  Quickly give the person what they need, off to the hospital please go.
