Hoodwinked

Tricked by masters, duped by fools

Conned by artists using tools

They pull the wool over eyes

Always catch folks by surprise

Clever crafters do their tricks

Searching victims, them to prick

Be on your guard prayerfully

Trust in Your Lord patiently

Don’t be quick to judge the case

How it looks may be a maze

Not much is as it appears

Much, instead, is “smoke and mirrors”

Diligent, you must pursue

What is truth so not be fooled

Pray for wisdom, keep eyes glued

Listen fully, you’ll be clued

Read your Bible, kneel and pray

Follow Jesus every day

Holy Spirit will impart

Wisdom needed from the start

Obey fully, yield to God

Perform not nor be a fraud

Hypocrites are plentiful

Faithful ones not bountiful

Don’t tricks follow. Open eyes

To the truth and let Lord guide

He will lead you in right way

If you follow Him today

Don’t be duped by what sounds good

Best to check now under hood

Give your life now up to Christ

Let him rule now all your life
