[Intro] Real Is Rare... "Let It Go!" [Verse 1] The fear of the Lord — that’s where wisdom starts Not the applause of men, not their approval in your heart He who fears God — will fear nothing else Not their opinions, not their lies, not their wealth I used to care what people thought of me Tried to keep them happy, tried to be seen Then the Word cut deep — am I seeking to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be His — Galatians says [Chorus] Fear Him — the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell Fear Him — the Holy One who does not fail Let God be true and every man a liar I tremble at His Word, not at their fire The fear of man brings a snare — that’s written plain But whoso puts his trust in the Lord shall be safe, not in vain I fear the Judge, not the jury I fear the Potter, not the clay in fury... [Vocal Snap] ("Hallelujah!") [Verse 2] They will call you hateful, they will call you extreme They’ll say you’re too harsh, say you’re living in a dream But does the clay say to Him that formed it — what doest Thou? Who are we to tell the King of glory how? He sets the standard — we don’t get to vote The narrow way is still the only boat No majority vote changes God’s decree No cultural tide washes out the sea [Bridge] It’s the beginning of knowledge — to reverence His name To depart from evil is understanding the same Proverbs three — trust Him with all your heart Lean not to your own understanding, from it depart In all your ways acknowledge Him — He shall direct Don’t look to the left, don’t look to the intellect Fear God. Keep His commandments. That’s the whole duty. Everything else fades — it’s all vanity. [Final Chorus] Fear Him — the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell Fear Him — the Holy One who does not fail Let God be true and every man a liar I tremble at His Word, not at their fire The fear of man brings a snare — that’s written plain But whoso puts his trust in the Lord shall be safe, not in vain I fear the Judge, not the jury I fear the Potter, not the clay in fury... [Vocal Snap] ("Hallelujah!") [Outro] Proverbs 9:10. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Let that settle in you. Fear God. Nothing else matters. Real Is Rare. [END]
