Your word

Truth

All in all at the end of the day

We are not only judged by the things that we do but the things that we say

The words that come out of our mouths are clearly heard that’s why it’s important you stand by your word

Like a seed that sprouts there are the roots Integrity and honor are supported by honesty and truth

Look in the mirror what do you see

Your word flourishing of the person you are meant to be

Truth like a lamb being lead to slaughter mislead makes it harder to discern the things we oughta

Listen and hear for much is heard the value of who you are can be found in your word

Our world suffers great want and need the stillness of peace we shall visit when we are freed

Those who suffer can be found coast to coast our humanity unraveling at great cost

Let us spark the torch to pass along our words and our convictions must be strong

We each owe this life the best we can do and that begins with our word to stand tall and true

The words that we speak let them be the seeds of our lives

They should flourish and produce after their own kind

Spoken of in ancient days and framed by artist

The lessons in life of seed time and harvest

Let us remember as we are heard the most important thing we are bound to is our word
