Line By Line
by Michael Doyle

Scripture being God breathed
Is to save us from being deceived
Every word is for our training
As toward righteousness we are heading

Read the Bible in our trust
Paying attention as we must
The names listed provide genealogy
Tracing back to God in true theology

Each sign of apparent difference
Should be examined with reverence
Things are given in summarization
Without diminishing given explanation

Quiet faithfulness has its payout
Keeping true even where there might be doubt
Doing the nobly right gets its respect
Not to be put aside in benign neglect

The things in front of us are more important
Than we know and to be cherished with sentiment
Character is lived out line after endless line
Revealing as it does, those things which are Devine
