For the Sake of My Brother

Walking more purposeful
following all strictures
faithful to the law
though I am freed from its restrictions

For the sake of my brother
fulfilling all language
the law, the precepts,
the fine point, precision

That none would fall
because of my knowledge
though I am freed
staying in bondage

Yoked to the rules
that others believe remain
hoping by submitting
bringing them to our Savior
