How shall I call upon God,
In whom they have not believed;
How should they honor and laud,
With no salvation received.
How are they without preaching,
From the Scriptures to be heard;
About Christ and His teaching,
As been written in the Word.
How will we teach if not sent,
For the beauty of the feet;
Of the ones who preach and went,
For being of the elite.
But they have not all obeyed,
Who believes what he has heard;
Some are seduced and have strayed,
What is taught throughout the Word.
So then faith comes from hearing,
Hearing by the Word of God;
Knowing what is revering,
And how to honor and laud.
For their voices has gone out,
To all the ends of the earth;
Which is showing so much doubt,
How much the Word has been worth.
Moses provokes with envy,
Making angry and foolish;
As they feel the jealousy,
As conceited and selfish.
Isaiah is bold to say,
I have been found by who seek;
They must confess as they pray,
While being humbly meek.
All day long I stretched my hand,
To people who disobey;
Contrary to the command,
As they keep going astray.
