2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate,
sound in faith, in charity, in patience.
3 The aged women likewise,
that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness,
Titus 2:2-3 KJV
~~~~~~~~~~~
As much as you despise
it you must age,
Until one day you feel
the weight of years,
But with the wrinkles
brings the knowing sage,
Experienced in
laughter, calm and tears.
If you should ever act
your age it's now,
For younger eyes are
looking up to you.
Let sober living shine
upon your brow,
And all the words you
say be sound and true.
You have a grave
responsibility
To be the light of
Christ in faith and love.
Endure the world each
day more patiently,
And show us how to pray
to God above.
To all the aged men and women saints,
Spend all your time in praise and not complaints.
