Seasoned with Salt

"Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man" (Colossians 4:6).

We do not know who we may reach
Until tomorrow has arrived,
But God can give us salty speech,
Seasoned with His grace revived.

Speech with grace is always salty,
Creating thirst for what is God's.
Speech without His grace is faulty,
Even if the world applauds.

Speech with grace is seasoned well
With wisdom that will save from wrath.
As salt and light we seek to tell
There is a single saving path.

Speech with grace will point to Christ,
The only Truth that make us free,
For He alone was sacrificed
To save our souls at Calvary.

Speech with grace is sure and reasoned,
With evidence that God had planned.
Prophetic truth with grace is seasoned,
With answers that are never bland.

Thank you Lord for speech with grace
That's seasoned by Your Holy Spirit.
So guide our speech in every place
And every time that others hear it.
