"Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness" (Psalm 112:4). "An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbor: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered" (Proverbs 11:9). "I will say to them which were not My people, Thou art My people; and they shall say, Thou art my God" (Hosea 2:23). "Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, This people draweth nigh unto Me with their mouth, and honoreth Me with their lips; but their heart is far from Me… They be blind leaders of the blind" (Matthew 15:7,8,14).
The upright walks
before the Lord,
Thus guided by
integrity,
But lying lips shall
be abhorred
By God, who
hates hypocrisy.
The Lord
commands us to beware
Of what the
hypocrite will say.
Let heaven's
light expose the snare
Of lying lips
that lead astray.
We're sure of
this: God surely knows
All those who trust
Him and are His.
The hypocrites He
shall expose
Shall see Him as
He truly is.
With heaven's
light, Lord, we persuade,
Though lies obscure
the hypocrite.
The souls that
trust in their charade
Shall fall with
them into the pit.
