Do We Pass The Test?

by Gertrude Jefferies

We can point the finger at others,
Say they don't know how to live
But are we loving and forgiving
As God's children ought to live?

Do we always turn the other cheek?
Do we look beyond their faults,
Can we say our lives exemplify
And always our God exalt?

So before we mark the other man
Say that he does not live right,
Let's be very sure that our lives
Are pure and holy in God's sight.

When we point our finger at others
Criticize and make a fuss,
Know there are three other fingers
And they are pointing right at us.
