Nephi's Plea

Why do I let the devil in
To tempt me to commit a sin. 
His only wish for you and me 
To wallow in anger and misery. 

I know in whom I place my trust
In God above, that is a must. 
We must always stay awake
So we don’t make the same mistake. 

Refuse to give in to his lies
For those that do will surely die. 
Choose to follow God’s holy son
And then with Him we can be one. 

Rejoice, rejoice in God’s pure love
It’s the only thing I am sure of. 
The scars we have for standing strong
Jesus will heal and they’ll be gone. 

The day will come when all is right 
For we will stand in God’s pure light. 
All of the pains we have endured
Will be forgotten for they are cured. 

Father's Day

On this day we like to pay 
A tribute to our dads and say:
“You’re the best dad on the earth” 
And let him know of his great worth. 

But on this day I wish to praise 
The seven children we did raise.  
You truly are God’s gift to me
And for your joyful lives I plea. 

You all have trials everyday
Just know that God will hear you pray. 
I am nothing without y’all 
And your sweet mom completes it all!

You are the reason I pursue 
What I must do to remain true. 
I know I’m not the perfect dad
But I’m all you got so that’s too bad!  

Love your Dad!!
