You remind me of a King I know,

plural of majesty, and warrior of bow.

Filled with dedication and loyalty, and love,

giving his life from heaven above.

Don't forget your task is at hand,

and only YOU can complete.

An unforgiven regret

if you choose not to meet.

Walk in shoes of integrity and purpose,

leave not your own sons in defeat.

Your crown will be waiting

only when you can say.

I've accomplished my mission

in the righteous way.

Then rejoice with pride,

but don't ever forget.

Eat and pray every day for

Life is a Gift... Every Day!

 

You remind me of a Queen I know,

relentless and strong,

loving and giving.

Polish your pearls

and prepare for your foes,

'cause without true love,

life is not worth living.

Carry in your arms and in your heart, the truth.

What's right is love

and be the living proof.

Rest your mind earthbride,

when all of your children are fed.

Leave for tomorrow's work

the worries ahead.

Your work goes not unnoticed or forgotten,

the Almighty MASTER looks on from above.

Your reward awaits to pay,

though it may not be swift,

Eat and pray every day for

Life is a Gift...Every Day!
