Brains are disobeying the program
Of Christ
By adding and taking away
Jesus said, that l am a jealous God
No more Lords and Kings will pay.
Jesus came to redeem a lost world
of sin
And He shed His blood on that
Rugged Cross
No other one was fit to die
And our Lord from Heaven is the
Boss.
God, the Father, sent His son Jesus
A redeeming Christ from on high
He was not Jew or Gentle
For the sins of this world He came
to die.
For all who would believe on Him
Shall not perish when they die
An eternal happy place to live with
His Father in Heaven on high.
The Bible said these things will be
And it is being fulfilled every day
Men are adding to Gods holy word
And leading thousands today
astray.
Some men are preaching false doc
trine
And fighting donation as we'll
Gods word is so plain a fool
shouldn't erase
False doctrine will lead you to hell.
The Bible is a Book of Books
1t is something always to learn
Yet men are claiming to finish the
Bible
Now tell me what has he to learn?
Gods spirit once ruled the Church
Yet degrees, diplomas, and pro-
grams today
Are driving Gods spirit away,
And leading this young race
astray.
God is warning his people today
his man he chose to write
His man is just little man
And sin is all he will fight.
l am lifting Christ up before men
No other name in the church 7 need
And all who will believe on Christ
Shall have an eternal happy life.
