[Instrumental Intro — rolling reggae bass, warm organ, gently shifting Moog] [Verse One — close male lead, steady conviction] Wherefore, girding up your loins, Serve the Master in fear and truth, As those who have forsaken the vain, empty talk and error of the multitude, And believed in Him who raised up our Master Yahushua Messiah from the dead, And gave Him glory, And a throne at His right hand. [Verse Two — ensemble harmonies enter] To Him all things in heaven and on earth are subject. Him every spirit serves. He comes as the Judge of the living and the dead. His blood will Elohim require of those who do not believe in Him. [Instrumental Passage — blues guitar answers the Moog] [Verse Three — fuller organ, firm rhythmic delivery] But He who raised Him up from the dead will raise us up also, If we do His will, And walk in His commandments, And love what He loved, Keeping ourselves from all unrighteousness, Covetousness, love of money, evil speaking, false witness; Not rendering evil for evil, Or railing for railing, Or blow for blow, Or cursing for cursing, But being mindful of what the Master said in His teaching: [Final Movement — warm male ensemble, widening harmonies] Judge not, that you be not judged; Forgive, and it shall be forgiven unto you; Be merciful, that you may obtain mercy; With what measure you measure, It shall be measured to you again; And once more, Blessed are the poor, And those that are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, For theirs is the kingdom of Elohim. [Instrumental Outro — expressive Moog, blues guitar, warm organ resolves]
