1. SIREN CALL OF WEALTH

Given up your values
Exchanging the eternal with the earthly

Shamelessly posing as something that you’re not
Leading others astray
Harvesting what you didn’t sow
Claiming goods that you don’t own

Twisting words
Twisting minds
Subduing to the
Siren call of wealth

Hoarding a fortune
That moth and rust can destroy

Shamelessly posing as something that you’re not
Leading others astray
Harvesting what you didn’t sow
Claiming goods that you don’t own

Twisting words
Twisting minds
Subduing to the
Siren call of wealth

Manipulating
Your audience
Your reward
Is surely in store


2. ON SHAKY GROUND

You claim to defend values
You don't even know
Going against the very thing
You claim to protect

Self-appointed
Moral judge
On shaky ground

You know the letter of some of the Law
But you completely miss its Spirit
Your mercy triumphs over judgement
But it only works for yourself

Self-appointed
Moral judge
On shaky ground

Missing the
Foundation
Of God’s love


3. Unfollow

Get behind me
Get behind me
Get behind me
I won’t follow you


4. DIVIDED

Polarized society
Digging trenches
Turning family and friendships
Into a warzone

The age old principle of
Divide and conquer
Is at work today
Unknowingly embraced by vast numbers

Hypnosis
Of the masses
Manipulated
Into a verbal civil war

The age old principle of
Divide and conquer
Is at work today
Unknowingly embraced by vast numbers

You have been tricked into
Hating people on the other side
The real enemy you’ve never seen
He’s a master of disguise


5. THE LEAST OF THESE

Betraying the trust of the innocent ones
Committing hideous, unspeakable crimes
Causing lifelong damage
Scars that’ll never fully heal

Remember the words He said:
Whatever you do to the least of these
You do it unto me

Concealing the acts of the monsters
Ensuring it will happen again
The same thing somewhere else
To new, unsuspecting victims

Remember the words He said:
Whatever you do to the least of these
You do it unto me

Depart from me, you who are cursed
Into the eternal fire
Prepared for the devil and his angels


6. TO BE SAVED

If it is hard for the righteous to be saved,
What will become of the ungodly and the sinner?


7. CERTAIN DISASTER

Mistaking violence with strength
Hiding in the shadow of your enemy
Following a fatal pattern
Imprinted so deep

Feeling the shame
Instead of the one who really should
Concealing dirty secrets
Pushing away the helping hand

Finding comfort in
The most horrible of situations
Unconsciously attracted
To certain disaster


8. BELIEVE

Don't be afraid
Just believe


9. YOUR OWN DESIGN

You have left the straight and narrow
To follow a god of your own design

Professing to be wise
You have become a fool

Now when you hear his voice
Do not harden your heart

Professing to be wise
You have become a fool
Repent and return
Before it’s too late


10. PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH

Practice what you preach


11. A SMALL SPARK

Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark
The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the body parts
It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life
On fire, and is itself set on fire by hell

No human being can tame the tongue
It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison

Anyone who is never at fault
In what they say
Is perfect, able to keep
Their whole body in check

With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father
And with it we curse human beings
Who have been made in God’s likeness
Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing

No human being can tame the tongue
It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison
My brothers and sisters
This should not be


12. DEVIL'S ADVOCATE

Voluntarily putting on a blindfold
Assisting your executioners
Helping them in your
Own elimination

Kissing the hand
Of the betrayer

Defending your oppressors against
Anyone and everyone
With a pair of open eyes
And a living heart

Your conscience had been put to sleep long ago
With a lullaby of lies
You had shut your ears
To its distant cries

Kissing the hand
Of the betrayer

Defending your oppressors against
Anyone and everyone
With a pair of open eyes
And a living heart


13. RESIST

Resist the devil
And he will flee from you


14. Stand Your Ground

Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power
Put on the full armour of God, take your stand against the devil’s schemes
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the powers of this dark world
And the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms

When the day of evil comes
Stand your ground
After you’ve done everything
Stand

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist
With the breastplate of righteousness in place
With your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace
Take up the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit

Pray in the Spirit
On all occasions
With all kinds of prayers
And requests


15. MERCY TRIUMPHS

Mercy triumphs
Over judgement


16. IN REVERENT FEAR

Therefore, with alert and fully sober minds
Set your hope on the grace to be brought to you
As obedient children, don’t conform to evil desires
But be holy in all you do

For you have been born again
Not of perishable seed
But of imperishable
Through the living word of God

Live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear
For you know that it was not with silver or gold that you were redeemed
But with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without defect
Through him you believe in God and so your faith and hope are in God

For you have been born again
Not of perishable seed
But of imperishable
Through the living word of God

Now that you have purified
Yourselves by obeying the truth
Love one another
Deeply, from the heart


17. IN YOUR ANGER

In your anger do not sin


18. WISDOM

Who is wise and understanding among you?
Let them show it by their good life
Show it by deeds done in the humility
That comes from wisdom

But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts
do not boast about it or deny the truth
Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven
But is earthly, unspiritual, demonic

For where you have envy
And selfish ambition
There you find disorder
And every evil practice

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is pure and peace-loving
Considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit
It is impartial and sincere
Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness


19. TO THE HUMBLE

God opposes the proud
But shows favour to the humble


20. TURN FROM EVIL


Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic
Love one another, be compassionate and humble
Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult
Repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called

Whoever would love life and see good days
Must keep their tongue from evil

For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
And his ears are attentive to their prayer
But the face of the Lord is against
Against those who do evil

Whoever would love life and see good days
Must keep their tongue from evil

They must turn from evil and do good
They must seek peace and pursue it


21. SLOW TO SPEAK

Be quick to listen, slow to speak
And slow to become angry


22. YOUR COMMANDMENTS

You have put yourself in the place of the Creator
Projecting your thoughts and feelings on Him
And presenting them as His perfect will
Expecting others to follow

You declare your
Commandments
As absolute
Law for everyone

You are living in a delusion
Mistaking your preferences for God’s decrees
You preach your own ideas
Shoving them down on people’s throats

You declare your
Commandments
As absolute
Law for everyone
