Our Children Need A Legacy

Our children need a legacy
Of wisdom and of truth,
For “waves” of information
Bring confusion to our youth.

How will they learn values
Except by our example.
Society today
Godly wisdom tends to trample.

Help them to find balance
And teach them what is right.
If they have the Word of God
Their future will be bright.

They will need discernment
To sort out what they hear.
Leave to them a legacy
Of understanding which is clear.

“And these words, which I am commanding you this day, shall be (first) in your own mind and heart; (then) you shall whet and sharpen them, so as to make them penetrate, and teach and impress them diligently upon the (minds and) hearts of your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down and when you rise up.”
Deuuteronomy 6:6-7 Amplified Bible
