I bless the world because I bless myself.

Here's a truth you must confess:
Giving increases what you possess.
When you follow God's laws without duress
You'll see yourself as God's likeness --
It won't cause you any stress --
Bless the world -- it's yourself you bless.

It certainly isn't nice
To have to sacrifice,
So here's some good advice:
Just break the ice --
Heaven will suffice
No matter what the price.

Today and tomorrow,
You can give up your sorrow --
Joy's not something to borrow.

When you give up every thing
Your heart will always sing,
And you will be expressing
The joy of eternal blessing.

Our skies will be cloudless
As God's Love is endless --
Don't let joy be soundless,
Since God's love is boundless.

Here is one thing for sure:
This world will not endure --
It gives little treasure
Of minimal measure,
And fleeting pleasure.

We can laugh at death
Until our last breath,
But it's now time to see
That immortality
Is our identity.

Your security
Is your purity --
You are Heavenly,
And not just merely
A mortal body.

One truth at last I always see:
One Spirit we will always be --
We always are forever free:
I'm still as God created me.
