BIND THE LIAR
"Bind the liar,"
the cry came from the town crier
Yes, bind the liar and loose the Truth-sayer
How can that be?
And this is not the way it happened
in the day of the prophets
You will find that there are very few people
who welcome Truth
I've only been doing this for 13 years,
but I have no friends left
I could have lied and kept my friends,
but to lie, is to deny the Truth-Sayer within
I cannot do that
"Bind the liar," I cry out
for in this day and time,
the people live by a foundation of lies
and when Truth is spoken to them,
their response is silence or hatred
They literally don't know where to file the Truth
in their minds,
but as Christians, the Holy Spirit is promised
to teach us all Truth
and confirm the Truth spoken to us
"Bind the liar --- cause him to cease"
and yet, the people are tested daily to determine
if they belong to God or not
True people of God can confirm the Truth
Those of hell, will refute Truth
It's simple, and yet, the news is not good
concerning how few actually
confirm Truth
Do me a favor ---
Become one who knows Truth
Stand as a man
A secure Fortress
Listen to only Truth
Refute all lies
Ask God
to give you perfect discernment
as to what is Truth and what is a lie
It makes everything easier
so much easier
Not many want the Truth
I believe you do
It's possible
It's the only way to
"slay the giants"
"Bind the liar - release the Truth-sayer"
Let's teach this generation Truth
so that they welcome Words from the Father
and they choose to live life
in a way which honors
His Sacrifice for us
Truth - deny it and we deny His Sacrifice
Lies - accept them and we crucify Him once more

"Bar the gates!"
I cry with zeal and naivete
I view the battle growing
overflowing the boundaries of peace and sanctity
that once wrapped safely around human-kind
it is so violent and deafening
that with shuddering courage
I am tempted to look away again
I stand on the wall of the city
and behold the madness beneath
I see family and friends
I see torment and misery that rends
I find distress and affliction
evinced on every face I trust
"Bring out the swords,
wield your shields!"
I shout down to them
but they cannot hear me
my breathing becomes labored and anxious
as I realize the futility of my stance
and the cost it will have
on the inhabitants of my affection
my weapons are missing
and my armor is gone
I relinquished my honor and nobility
to search out selfish success and ease of spirit
I would protect them now
if I could
but . . .
I am helpless myself
wait!
I look down at my hand
as I stretch my arm forth
and feel the weight of a steel sword
now grasped firmly by new strength and rage
not my own
my armor chinks as I turn to find myself
in the midst of wounds and anguish
awaiting my final test
I brandish a shield
unknown to the untrained warrior
but still I remain unseen
by eyes of flesh
