Rebuke
-
Hearken O brother for rebuke is good,
The words do hurt but it's for you to know
Because of guilt, it's all misunderstood;
Correction is awareness and concern.
You cannot change of you still love your sin
There are no good things in selfish desire,
Heart is deceived and evil dwells within;
Shackled by pride, you build yourself a mire.
If someone speak the truth, you close your ears
And call it judgment because it hurts you,
All you want to hear is positive cheers
And scared to listen and know what is true.
Why there is guilt? Rebuke makes one better,
It points out the wrongs in your character.
