God's Warning to Us
God's Warning To Us!
A warning God sends at this time of the end,
By the prophet Malachi:
"Remember the law of Moses my friend,
Which I gave him on Mount Sinai.
Remember the statutes and judgments too;
Remember My Holy Days.
I've given them for a sign to you,
To keep you in all your ways.
My Holy Days you must always keep-
Their times are appointed by Me;
Or else, on you, My wrath I'll heap,
From which you cannot flee.
To Moses, My servant, I gave My law;
My voice did Israel hear,
But when the lightnings and smoke they saw,
They stood far off in fear."
From ancient days, our fathers strayed
From His holy, righteous way,
And all His laws they disobeyed;
But we should know better today.
God sent His Son to live and die,
To save us from our sin;
To send His spirit, that you and I
Might have His love within.
We must not subtract, nor ever add to
His Words from the mount of fire,
For, as it is written: "Let God be true,
But every man, a liar."
