Watchman Keep Not Silent

Sometimes as we speak the truth of what the LORD,directs us
 to reveal to the rebellious house and nation__
We become afraid of their looks,and maybe dismayed 
at their words!
We try to advise them to do the right things,to stay away
 from rebellion and sin,
But we are perceived to be their  bitterest enemies!
For the LORD has put upon our hearts to speak his words to them___
Maybe they will hear or they will forbear.
Woe the rebellious, for they begin to show dissatisfaction___
They need us to cheer them with propaganda to be seen
 as their supporters!
A fearful watchman will  cover his mouth with hands,and 
 become like a dumb dog!
And the devil rejoices when the watchman cannot bark,and 
 begin to see evil good,
and good evil!
Watchman beware when everybody speaks well of you,
 getting to expose the rebellious house__ 
you are deemed as their enemy!                             
Watchman do not blow the trumpet to be loved, by everyone in the 
 rebellious house and nation!
Watchman rejoice,if your name is written down in the books of heaven,
 because putting confidence in unreliable man is vanity!
