BY YOUR ACTIONS

The greatest truth is not so far from fib,
As can be seen in God's quite selfish bid
To have thee serve Him on your bended knee,
Lest from sweet freedom He will set you free.
Truth lives in all our actions and event,
Where by our deeds 'tis seen all that is true,
Based not on idle time so idly spent
For all that's fact resides in what you do.
Are you by my description this or that,
Changed by what I say that is not true,
Or are you not an expert with the bat,
Proved by the way the ball fast from it flew.
It seems that when you do what you must do,
By your actions you are labelled you.
