LET HIM BE YOUR FEAR

The LORD of hosts should be given due reverence;

A proper regard is obviously of great significance.

In life, we give honour to human dignitaries;

Why should the LORD not be accorded Glory?

 

The LORD of hosts ought to be hallowed in heart and soul;

He is the Creator, the Redeemer who makes us whole.

When the LORD is truly our Dread and our Fear;

He will be our Sanctuary to whom we may draw near.

 

Sadly, there are those who will reject this holy teaching;

Formal religion is chosen with all its traditional trappings.

The LORD would then become a Stone that would stumble;

Many would be ensnared and the end result would be terrible.

 

The Call to fear the LORD was diligently proclaimed;

Those who truly fear Him would truly praise His name.

The LORD will honour all who take the time to understand;

That the holy Fear of God was in His original Plan.
