314 Who Are the Wicked That Defy God?
Chorus
God commends only those
with their feet on the ground,
serving the God on earth,
but never those
who won’t accept
the Christ on earth.
No matter how true they are
to the heavenly God,
they will never escape
the hands of God
that punish the wicked.
These people are the wicked,
the evil who oppose God,
who’ve never gladly obeyed Christ.
Verse
You use your faith in God
to achieve your own aims.
Is this not an offense
against God’s disposition?
You believe in the existence
of the God in heaven,
but not the God on earth,
yet God rejects your views.
Chorus
God commends only those
with their feet on the ground,
serving the God on earth,
but never those
who won’t accept
the Christ on earth.
No matter how true they are
to the heavenly God,
they will never escape
the hands of God
that punish the wicked.
These people are the wicked,
the evil who oppose God,
who’ve never gladly obeyed Christ.
Outro
Their number includes
those who don’t know
and don’t accept Christ.
