Pleasing Others

We have an obligation,
To bear failings of the weak;
Being the navigation,
Helping someone as to seek.

Not for us but for others,
Pleasing as a good neighbor;
Build up and help your brothers,
In their leisure and labor.

For Christ pleased not for His own,
The reproaches of all those;
Who reproach fell at the throne,
To receive blessings that flow.

For whatever was written,
In the former days of old;
Of what had been forbidden,
Our instruction as told.

To encourage and endure,
In the Scriptures giving hope;
So that we would become pure,
Perseverance as to cope.

May the God of endurance,
Give encouragement you need;
For living with confidence,
To be able to succeed.

To live in such harmony,
And being in one accord;
Helps you to see the glory,
Of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Together having one voice,
Praise the Father of the Lord;
Sing out loud as you rejoice,
Showing that He is adored.

The root of Jesse shall come,
For He shall arise to rule;
Lets us enter His kingdom,
His foes to be His footstool.

May the God of hope give peace,
Fill you with joy and believe;
That His power will not cease,
The Holy Ghost you receive.
