Love Tells

When you say love your neighbor,

What does that really mean?

If they are living a life of sin

Should you let them be?

Should you act like all is all well,

and keep a peaceful grin?

If you know their soul's at risk,

Should you just ignore the sin?

If you truly love your neighbor

You will speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:25)

A wise man understand knowledge,

A gift from the Father above

"Let the righteous smite me,"

As a kindness it shall be, 

Reproof as an excellent oil, (Psalms 141:5)

O God, keep our eyes upon thee! (Psalms 141:8)

Ephesians 4:25

Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.

Psalms 141:5

Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.

Psalms 141:8

But mine eyes are unto thee, O GOD the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute. 

Proverbs 9:8

Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

Proverbs 19:25

Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.
