Telling a lie is a human nature Even kids do it without being tutored As it's a man's defense mechanism To avoid reproach and criticism.
Oftentimes, we say false information Mainly to cover our wrong actions Afraid of being punished by our parents As a result of doing things without their consent.
Sometimes we also speak untrue statements Because it's already our commitment In order to cover someone's mistake And to protect our honor that is at stake.
There is a sad truth about this lie— Tying rope around us, as to ourselves we deny For we cannot accept a certain reality— Holding on to a person who is much unworthy.
A hurting truth is better than a comforting deception As the former will set free our thoughts and emotions Do not let yourself be trapped by the devil He's the father of lies, bringing us to peril.
We should bear in mind this one thing There's nothing concealed that'll be forever hidden That's why it is good to stay honest 'Cause light will always conquer darkness.
Whatever color of lie you've committed A lie is a lie— gray, black, white or red Let your heart be filled with the overflowing love of Christ For love casts out fear, and fear is the root of all lies.
