Power of Prose

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof" (Proverbs 18:21).

The words we speak have power
To encourage or tear down.
Bitter, pleasant, sweet, or sour,
They can bring a smile or frown.

Death and life are in the tongue,
Whether written, sung, or spoken.
A word of love, a hymn that's sung,
May heal a heart that's broken.
