Battle Cry

How can I say that I follow this crowd?
I have seen the light and I teach the truth.
To walk so close to the edge invites disaster.
The light grows dim and the consequences of sin
grow at an alarming rate.
It becomes so easy to lose your standards and cling
to the temporary.
So, I say to myself as the prophets of old:
“Awake my soul! No longer droop in sin.”
