Chosen

The mark of Christ

Is plain as day

For those of us who see.

Not everyone is chosen though,

So steadfast we must be.

Keep that oil full;

Be ready for that day;

For the mark of Christ on His beloved

Is not all that we need.

We whom that are chosen,

Although the mark is seen,

Must live a life of virtue,

Our senses must be keen.

Both the works of mercy,

and Commandments ten,

Must be heeded surely;

May God have mercy on us then.
