Life is like a play

And we are like the actors

The world is our stage

And God the script redactor.

 

He offers roles that each us fit

Whether joyful, broken, or mean

He gives us what seems fit to use

In each and every scene.

 

We play our parts the way we should

Both in thoughts and in words

God directs the play, but gives us each

The choice for what occurs.

 

Life is short, so play your part well

And act it well for God

Then one day you’ll step off the stage

And step where angels have trod.

 

So beware the world, don’t act like it

For it will lead you astray

Instead, play your role for Christ

In every single day.
