The Good Heart

Heaven and earth bares me a witness Only heaven and earth bares me a witness That righteousness is greatness Kings and queen might be ignorant But I careless I am the son of God The father of the fatherless Cloth in apparel of faithfulness Washed in the blood of kindness Only heaven and earth bares me a witness For that is greatness Let mankind deny me But this does not change me Ye men of vain imagination Who do not like good direction Why won’t you perish in your illusion? You harden your heart And will not listen to my instruction Ye heart of fools Who should be instructed with whips You flattering lips Your evil deeds will end soon Like never before Ye shall be no more Surly the material you trust Will not last They will all go to the dust
