Exhort Unity
Where may be the ones who are wise?
Where is the professing teacher?
Would they by chance be in disguise?
Find a charismatic preacher.
Worldly wisdom is just nonsense,
And is getting worse all the time;
People get so uptight and tense,
Things fine now used to be a crime.
We do not recognize the Lord,
No longer are we disciplined;
His laws are now being ignored,
So no problem if you have sinned.
So God has decided to use,
Nonsense to save those who believe;
And as we speak of the Good News,
For salvation that you receive.
Some ask for miraculous signs,
Others may search the numbers game;
As what the calendar defines,
Than what the Gospel does proclaim.
Maybe it just might offend you,
Not too political correct;
But the way that the Lord would view
His godly wisdom is direct.
His power and wisdom gave Christ,
Showing that God does have the strength;
For mercy that was sacrificed,
To persevere at any length.
