Be Doers, Not Hearers Poem by Mac Adrone Adonay

Be Doers, Not Hearers



You have heard many voices teaching you
A lot of life's lessons and advice too
You think deeply and you begin to listen
But after the days, words are forgotten

You followed your heart without pondering
You thought you're right on what you are doing
Why yo8u complain first, before you obey?
You're always going back on your way

The words you hear fade away on your ears
And now, how will you overcome your fears?
Doing what you want, the way of your own?
But this I say, you can't do that alone.

My brothers, throw your pride, start to listen
Be doers of good, be humble to men
And my sisters, be not only hearers,
Prove yourselves that you're one of those doers!

Doers of good and honorable things
Wake up, start to repair the broken strings
Be an example as people would see
A good doer, the way you choose to be

Now, are you afraid to do what is right?
Are your eyes were blinded by your own sight?
Or you just want to remain a hearer,
Friends, a good listener is a doer.
