For Your Delinquent Friends and Kinsmen

Have you paid all your debts?
A good man, you say, you are,
As I recall.
How about the life you owe
To Him Who gave His for you?
Have you paid Him back?
No? Then, when and how?
What do you propose?
A good deed here and there?
Do you think that bends the scales
In your favor?
Come now, fool, and give it up.
Your life is His; He bought it!
Bow down and serve Him with His others;
They are your true sisters and brothers.
