CONSPICUOUSLY
Live the gospel conspicuously, shine bright,
Never hide or be ashamed of the true light,
Let all know who you are, for what you stand,
Be a gospel beacon across this our great land.
Do not presume that people know who you are,
Stand up and be counted let the light shine far,
Kind conviction may persuade a heart aright,
This will happen best when you shine bright.
Keep promises you have made, an example be,
For God’s covenants are there for you for eternity,
If you are conspicuous in the gospel every day
Then you may persuade folks along the right way.
But there is free agency and we should never force,
This is what Satan would do, the totally wrong course,
But be a good example let your light shine through,
And God’s richest blessing will one day come to you.
