My mouth is open unto you,
While my heart has been enlarged;
You do not have a straitened view,
Delusions have been overcharged.
You are straitened with affection,
For those who do not feel the same;
Because you have felt rejection,
From those who in the faith you claim.
Watch out where you try to embark,
Or you might be losing your mind;
For those others are in the dark,
That you recompense in like kind.
Relationships with unbelievers,
Are unbefitting to possess;
For they will not be receivers,
In the doctrine that you profess.
What fellowship does righteousness,
Be partnered with iniquity;
A light shining in the darkness,
Will soon lose its ability.
Can Christ agree with the devil?
Are you able to share a life?
With someone who is unable,
To have hope in the midst of strife.
Their life contains only false gods,
That can never see, hear or speak;
They are blinded by many frauds,
Showing no future they can seek.
But we worship the living God,
We are the temple where He stays;
As long as we honor and laud,
We remain true and no one strays.
Get away from unbelievers,
Separating yourself from them;
Or you will not be receivers,
And God will stop you and condemn.
