Beware of the Boast

"Boast not thyself of tomorrow, for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth" (Proverbs 27:1).

Boast not yourself in the things of tomorrow.
Seize every moment God gives you today.
Procrastination will surely breed sorrow
And rob you of riches for those who obey.

Beware of the boast that assumes you can wait
To bank on a future that's not guaranteed.
Act in the present, before it's too late,
To say today's word, and to do today's deed.
