[Spoken Word Verse] Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write The words of the One walking amidst the golden light He that holdeth the seven stars in His own right hand Brings a prophetic briefing to the timeline of man I know thy labor, thy patience, how thou canst not bear The evil men and liars who are spreading a snare Thou hast borne, thou hast patience, for my name did not faint A flawless typology of the early day saint [Sung Heavy Country Rock Chorus] Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee tonight! Because thou hast left thy first love and thy light! Remember from whence thou art fallen and repent! Or I will remove thy candlestick where it was sent! Yeah the judgment is coming, the hammer will fall, The writing is clear on the Ephesus wall! [Spoken Word Verse] This first era of the Church stood firm on the word Testing false apostles by the truths they had heard But doctrine without devotion turns the living to wood An allegory of a church where the cold routine stood But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds and the flame Of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate just the same He that hath an ear, let him hear what is said Before the first love is forgotten and dead [Sung Heavy Country Rock Chorus] Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee tonight! Because thou hast left thy first love and thy light! Remember from whence thou art fallen and repent! Or I will remove thy candlestick where it was sent! Yeah the judgment is coming, the hammer will fall, The writing is clear on the Ephesus wall! [Sung Bridge] To him that overcometh will I give now to eat Of the tree of life in paradise, holy and sweet The first church in typology has laid down the track A prophetic history that ain't turning back [Spoken Word Outro] So check the hidden altar where the embers used to glow Before the cold religion takes the only thing you know Yeah the first love is gone Lost to the wind [End]
