White Lyin'

If there is division and indecision in the Church, the Israel of God It’s our low view of the Law of God? Oh, many redefine what the law is Or they say that Christ has done away with it Is that what Christ said? Do we not follow what God has said? Are we dead believers? Can we come from our graves on our own to be receivers? Some can say an epistle is straw For believers the condemnation has gone away, not the law If someone offered dead men, the elixir of life And held it up and said come forward dead plight How do we on our own come forward? How do we who act froward? Only dead men being called by God can perk their ears Only dead men being summoned can hear So, we hear with our ears, then we live it out in our hearts Because our God is working in the inward parts For someone to say that the law has passed away Is to not understand the ever presence of The Life, The Truth and The Way His fulfillment as a present tense He comes to our defense To say that some Old Testament Laws only applies to Israel Is to have a low opinion of God and His vision visceral There is always secondary application God uses anthropomorphic demonstration If God says something that should settle it So don’t get high and mighty and meddle in it But pray for the mettle to defend righteously Giving a ready answer to those who ask hopelessly The Church which is the Israel of God The Church in the Wilderness connects us abroad All who hear we need to come near and reason together This is a command not a question of whether Come now sands of the shore, the unlimited star count Don’t fight and redefine God’s Law, because we will never surmount So, is it ok to tell little white lies? Is it ok to be white lyin’? Is it ok to associate perversion and that roaring lion With those who are metaphysical scions? No says The Lamb and The Lion, come to worship at Mount Zion
