timothy marches, carrying the torch of revolution

Worldly standards

set by heathens who need Jesus.

Living boldly, with passion and proclamation

Everlasting divinity,

in whose name rings through every generation.

I will love like my Savior does,

be pure in heart and not be too quick to judge.

I may be an example of young humanity,

though that doesn't make me useless.

I will live in Jesus name.

King David, Mary, and Timothy,

Biblical examples of how young ones

can lead and make an impact

in this world, in Jesus name.

Author notes

My favorite verse is 1 Timothy 4:12 - "Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity."

And I guess the reason why is that it is such an anthem and encouragement to young Christians to live boldly and in a way that strengthens the Body and honors Christ.
