Beware of those who wear disguise <br />The mask of pure deceit <br />The devil seeks to spread his lies <br />Amongst the Lord’s elite <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />No child of God can act the fool <br />Treat church as though a game <br />No priest receives the highest stool <br />To play with Jesus’ name <br /> <br /> <br />Some try God’s holy priest to feign <br />They’ve learned salvation’s law <br />But only preach for worldly gain <br />A job and nothing more <br /> <br /> <br />Of God from books they’ve sought to learn <br />World knowledge they’ll consume <br />With this in vain they seek to turn <br />Man’s desert into bloom <br /> <br /> <br />They say they’ve come to spread the light <br />To dig and plough the soil <br />Up high they’ll stand in robes of white <br />Without a dropp of oil <br /> <br /> <br />Although they’ve failed the Master’s call <br />They’ll think that all is well <br />But deeper still from grace they’ll fall <br />Before the gates of hell <br /> <br /> <br />They’ll preach God’s word the crowd to please <br />In hope their house to fill <br />But only priests who bend their knees <br />May find the Father’s will <br /> <br /> <br />Anointed has a priest to be <br />With oil from Jesus’ hand <br />For only then God’s sheep will see <br />And come to understand.<br /><br />Michael P.
