Why does a person say one thing and mean another
As you would talk they want you to think like it’s not a bother
But when it’s time for them to work and don’t attempt do the job
Is when you will hear there biggest excuse with a sad wimpy sob
In the past when a person would give there word it use to be a fact
But now they will look you in the eye as they give you a slap on the back
We have taught our children that the bible teaches thou shall not lie
But as a adult they well say and do things just to get them bye
Let’s stop to think what would of happen to us if the promise was never kept
There would have been no one there to listen as his mother wept
The writings that his blood was given to forgive our sin
And the teaching of the fight over death would of never began
Or maybe the young man never feed the people on the hill
As there was no fish and he just wanted to pass out a pill
But it is important to know that one man didn’t know how to lie
As his heart was sadden when his only son had to die
Let’s remember what a lie might do in the end
When you give a promise to a worker or a good friend
It is for you to remember my father never once said a lie
And because of it I was the one that suffered and had to die
So if you think that just a little white lie won’t hurt
But it would make your word to be only as good as the dust from the dirt
