Truth is sacred and is precious
But a stumbling block indeed,
When delusions and our fantasies
Is what we prefer to see.
The truth will cut and wound
Because it rightfully needs to be –
A double-edged sword
To produce sincerity.
And excuses become paramount
When we prefer the lies –
The mainstream and the wide path
Where like an angel it’s disguised.
Half truths are full blown lies
And they simply don’t exist,
Because they’re tainted and dishonest
Where the motives go amiss.
It takes courage and a backbone
To stand for justice and for truth,
Because the carnal ways disdain it
And despise its honest fruit.
And when the lies are exposed
They’re justified and they’re embraced –
To demonise all truthful ways
So clarity will not be faced.
But there is a righteous judgement
That God Almighty has ordained,
And one that lasts forever…
Beyond the earthly grave.
As we repent for the dishonesty
And all shallow of our ways,
We revere the truth of Jesus Christ
Where integrity remains.
