Be kind
Simple things, great ripple effect
In a world so dry
As a desert takes in the rain
Show mercy and kindness
Execute justice
Be compassionate and be tender
To the widow
To the fatherless
To the foreigner
Be kind and sincere
This is what requires of the Lord requires of me
And He promises me
A heart so soft that I can feel His heartbeat
Ears so sharp that I can hear His heartbeat
Eye sight so good that I can see His heart
Simple things, great ripple effect
Be kind
Kind?
Yes kind
But I must fight for myself
I must accomplish, accomplish, accomplish
The Lord says show mercy be kind and just
But I will be a “softie!”
Absolutely! Your heart will be soft
So soft that you will hear His heart beat
And know His desire that men accept His son Jesus
That they may be saved from destruction.
Be kind love truth and peace.
Zechariah 7:8-11
Then the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying, “Thus has the Lord of hosts said, ‘Dispense true justice and practice kindness and compassion, to each other; and do not oppress or exploit the widow or the fatherless, the stranger or the poor; and do not devise or even imagine evil in your hearts against one another.’ But they refused to listen and pay attention and turned a stubborn shoulder [stiffening themselves in resistance] and stopped up their ears. They made their hearts [hard] like flint, so that they could not hear the law and the words which the Lord of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets. Therefore great wrath came from the Lord of hosts.
