Admonishment

Oh Israel I called you forth to listen

there can only be one master to the house

I redeemed you all to belong as brothers

as your service to me you have espoused 

 

Why do you seek control over the others

by example my purchase set you free

my will I am able to make known

when you are punished know it will come from me

 

I will be the one who gives directions

to the one who is my servant call

my will I am able to make known

it is to me that he will stand or fall

 

You raise yourselves like lions in the forest

tear into my servants like your prey

shortly I will settle the accounts here

pray your coins I will not take away

 

By example I set myself as servant

it was you who I washed and fed

I set a table just like a house slave

upon it was my own wine and bread

 

You were purchased from the wicked

were set as freemen in my tent

everything you use is my possession

you will account for how it has been spent

 

If you are unable to submit to my direction

know this you can be easily replaced

I will not allow you to destroy my building

I can from stone make flesh and you erased

 

Every servant is dependent on his master

and a master example I have set

there is only one path to true glory

the obeisance of love you do forget

 

I will use anyone I choose to

their service to me I'll not forget

I will raise or lower those deserving

if you refuse a decision you'll regret

 

Accept my admonishments directions

the gentle voice I have sent to you

you have publicly shamed my reputation

It is my example you must learn to do

 

My father appointed me the master

as a son in his own house I serve

I have sent my messengers before me

My arrival will dispense what you deserve

amen, come Lord Jesus

 

when I get hauled out of bed for this

I have to wonder to whom our Lord

has to have listen , those to whom this

is addressed you know the scriptures
