Remember who ruled over you,
Spoke to you on the Word of God,
Consider the way to construe,
Imitate your faith that you laud.
Jesus Christ will remain the same,
The past, the present, and forever;
All of which that we do proclaim,
Will never falter or sever.
Be not led by diverse teachings,
Christ is wonderful for heart;
Strengthened by grace in your preaching,
Nourish others for a new start,
Not any nourishment by food,
Rather nourishing the spirit;
By giving a positive mood,
Because of your thoughts and merit.
We have an altar where we serve,
Atheists have no right to eat;
They are having a lot of nerve,
Attempting with eating the meat.
Because those beasts whose blood is brought.
In the temple by the high priest;
A sacrifice never had bought,
Our sin as burned for the feast.
Jesus suffered outside the gate,
For to sanctify the people;
Through His own blood to compensate,
Are worshipping in the temple.
So, let us go to Him outside,
Bearing the reproach, He endured;
While within Him we abide,
For the iniquities be cured.
Here we have no lasting city,
But seek the city that will come;
No longer in taking pity,
Mending those that are deaf and dumb.
Do not neglect in doing good,
Sacrifice by pleasing the Lord;
Obeying leaders as you should,
Not to let their rules be ignored.
Pray for us because we are sure,
That we do have a clear conscience;
As the Holy Spirit will cure,
For God to give His assurance.
