our allegiance only
to God above

allegiance to God


Allegiance to God
to the eternal,
not to anything
of this earth

Holding on loosely
to the life we hold onto;
using our gifts
for the glory of God

Allegiance to God
to God only,
letting nothing else
take God’s place

Holding on loosely
to the life we hold onto;
using our gifts
for the glory of God
