Thank God for faithful fathers
Who steadfastly uphold
The truth that does not falter
From age to age retold
Thank God for faithful mothers
Who teach children to pray
To love God and each other
To trust Him, and obey
Thank God for faithful children
Who love Him in their youth
Seeking firstly, His kingdom
Of righteousness and truth
Thank God for faithful foll’wers
Who do not doubt and stray
But bear truth’s torch so others
May find and know the Way
Thank God for Truth abiding
Divine and absolute
For those, rightly dividing
The word that yields good fruit
© Janet Martin
2 Tim.2:15
Be diligent to present yourself approved to God,
a worker who does not need to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.
