Young Man of Valor

Young man of God, will you guard your eyes

And keep them only for your greatest prize?

The wife God planned for you from the beginning,

She’ll be enough to keep your head a-spinning!

Don’t waste your emotions looking at other girls,

No matter how special or gorgeous their curls,

Instead, keep your eyes fixed on the Lord.

Follow His leading and you’ll never be flawed.

 

Young man of might, will you guard your heart?

Don’t give your feelings to any up-start,

Keep your heart disciplined and wait for the time

When God gives you His choice; it will be sublime!

A daughter of virtue who has kept herself pure,

Who follows after truth and trusts God for sure,

One who loves children and keeping the home,

And who delights to serve without a moan.

 

Young man of valor, will you keep your first kiss

For your wedding day when it will be true bliss?

Will you start your marriage on a holy foundation?

This is the way to strengthen the nation.

Establish a family that will endure any test?

God will be with you and you will be blessed,

In the storms, the wind, and the battles of life

If you keep the covenant with your lovely wife.
