The Righteous Parent

What good is a parent
Who disciplines not his child
Who doesn't teach them to be humble
But lets them run wild

Yet if the parent teaches well
But the child listens not
Who suffers more, the father?
Or the child that he begot

If an earthly father loves you enough
To teach you wrong from right
How much more so does Our Father
Who is bathed in Holy Light?

Our father loved us so
That he gave up His only Son
So that one day we'll be with Him
When our earthly battle is won

Taken from Hebrews 12:4-13
