541 Follow God’s Words to Cast Off Dark Influences
Verse 1
To escape from the influence of darkness,
you must first be loyal to God,
you must eagerly pursue the truth,
and then you will live in the correct state.
When you’re not in the correct state,
then that means you are not being loyal to God,
you are not eager to seek the truth,
so you can’t escape the influence of darkness.
Chorus
God’s words are the foundation
for man to escape from the influence of darkness.
If man can’t practice by His words,
they will not break free from the bondage of darkness.
Verse 2
To live in the correct state means
to live under the guidance of God’s words,
being loyal to God, seeking the truth,
sincerely expending for God and loving Him.
Those in the correct state will transform
as they enter deeply into truth,
and transform with the deepening of the work.
They’ll be gained by God and come to truly love Him.
Chorus
God’s words are the foundation
for man to escape from the influence of darkness.
If man can’t practice by His words,
they will not break free from the bondage of darkness.
Bridge
Those who escape from the darkness will grasp God’s will.
They’ll become confidants of God.
They’ll have no notions or rebellion against Him.
They will detest these, and have true love for God.
What God requires is man’s singular love,
to be occupied by His words and love for Him.
Man should live and find their pursuit in God’s words,
run around, live and love God for His words.
Chorus
God’s words are the foundation
for man to escape from the influence of darkness.
If man can’t practice by His words,
they will not break free from the bondage of darkness.
