The Church and the World Deceived

The church and the world once walked apart on the changing shores of time.

For according to God’s Holy Bible, the church and the world don’t rhyme.

How can two walk together, unless they be agreed?

How can a Christian love the world, unless he be DECEIVED?

The Bible says love not the world, neither the things therein,

Although some try to walk with God while they still live in sin.

Unequally yoked they walk on, hand in hand agreed,

The church and the world, the best of friends, DECEIVING and being DECEIVED!

Many are called, but few are chosen to walk salvation’s trail.

Though multitudes have filled the pews, they’re just dressed up for Hell.

They tickle their ears and scratch their backs, before they have believed.

And add them to the church of God, how sad, so many DECEIVED!

They build their empires to the sky, to show the works of man.

They brag and hammer with the world, though they build on sinking sand.

Their vast domains will tumble down, though now they can’t conceive,

That eternity will soon reveal that the so-called church was DECEIVED!

They preach the love of Jesus, without the wrath of God.

They’re trying to walk the middle where Jesus never trod.

He preached “repent or perish!” Today they preach, “believe.”

And multitudes are going to church and going to Hell, DECEIVED

Down through the bloody trail of time our fathers fought the fight,

Proclaimed the Holy Word of God, stood up for what was right.

Today we have lowered our standards, the Bible is not believed.

There is a way that seemeth right, someone is sure DECEIVED!

Religion cannot satisfy the sinful heart of man,

The soul cannot be pacified, “Ye must be born again.”

You must repent of all your sins, before you can believe!

Turn from your wicked ways to Christ! Or go to Hell DECEIVED!

The gates of Hell will not prevail against the church of God!

The trail of blood was not in vain, this trail our fathers trod.

The changing shores may bring new trends, but some will truly believe.

For all that the Father gives to Christ will never be DECEIVED!
