Integrity combined with uprightness
Is as signpost of a life of righteousness
It causes man to look inside
And get rid of destructive pride
Integrity will make you hide
From those indulging in sin’s tide
Since in His presence you desire to abide
And must from sin your soul disguise
Integrity’s time clock you must punch
As secured in His presence you will eat lunch
Your food to taste seasoned by His grace
By knowing His ways you will secure your place
A heart with integrity will not bow
To those who for the truth will not vow
But will fight for the right from dawn to night
Not fearing his plight knowing with Christ it’s alright
So don’t allow your integrity to fall in the dust
Confront what you fear and in Him you must trust
The end you know is near so give Him your care
And be prepared to share with Him eternity there.

To those who for the truth will not vow." Very true, Gladys! And a fine poem, too!
