Live

Pssst! You are being watched

Pssst! You are being watched

You TESTIFY by the friends you seek,

By the very manner in which you speak,

By the way you employ your leisure time,

By the way you make use of dollar and dime.

 

You TESTIFY by the things you wear,

By the spirit in which your burdens bear,

By the kind of things at which you laugh,

By the music you play on your phonograph.

 

You TESTIFY by the way you walk,

By the things of which you delight to talk,

By the manner in which you speak to a foe,

By the books you read, and the places you go.

 

For none will take heed of the Gospel you give,

If it isn’t reflected in how you LIVE.
