We do not become discouraged,
On just what God has given us;
Through His ministry we managed,
To see the light without the fuss.
We refused any shameful ways,
Or secrets of a mystery;
No tricks of the trade to amaze,
Only the truth in ministry.
The Word of God not distorted,
Of everything we reveal;
Telling all as it was reported,
As we open the broken seal.
God watches as we clearly show,
The Good News that we tell others;
So that everyone will know,
How to become Christian brothers.
But it is hidden with a veil,
From those of you who are dying;
Drinking not from the Holy Grail,
Because of your constant lying.
The ruler here has blinded you,
Since you do not ever believe;
No longer knowing what is true,
Salvation you will not receive.
So then you do not see the light,
Of the Good News and the glory;
Since you have moved into the night,
Ears closed from hearing the story.
Our message is not about,
Ourselves as within this life;
Rather on Jesus that you doubt,
As He endured through all the strife.
But the darkness filters the light,
And death has started its decay;
And your mind knows not what is right,
When it will not trust to obey.
