“Beware my child, come out from there <br />Take heed the words I’ve said <br />With hypocrites you have no share <br />Come in the ark instead <br /> <br />Some people like to say they’re mine <br />Their bones instead are dry <br />The One I sent they undermine <br />So in their filth, they’ll die <br /> <br />From such as these take no more part <br />Your name is in my hand <br />You love your God with all your heart <br />But they; don’t understand <br /> <br />They say Lord, Lord, with hearts of stone <br />My face they fail to seek <br />But please themselves when on their own <br />That’s how their bowels are weak <br /> <br />Come leave them to the things they do <br />I’ve seen the nights you’ve cried <br />So now my child I’ve come for you <br />For such as you I died <br /> <br />Don’t grieve for those you leave behind <br />They’ve all been told before <br />But in their sin they’ve grown so blind <br />They fail to find my door <br /> <br />I have; a place for you to go <br />A church you have to see <br />My children there will help you grow <br />With them, you’ll worship me <br /> <br />They fast, they pray, they’re Spirit taught <br />My truth, they’ve made their own <br />They all believe my true report <br />In live to me alone.<br /><br />Michael P.
