Poetry

---

Assemble yourselves and draw near,
You survivors of the nation;
Wood idols do not revere,
Never gives you salvation.

They have no knowledge to share,
For praying that cannot save;
Just the one true God in prayer,
Will rescue you from the grave.

Declare and present your case,
Telling you to bring them near;
Let them take counsel for grace,
Who has declared who to fear.

Who has told this long ago?
Who has declared it of old?
From ancient time you should know,
Was it not the Lord that told?

Besides Him no other god,
A righteous God and Savior;
That you should honor and laud,
Will look on you with favor.

Turn to the Lord and be saved,
Through all the ends of the earth;
Free from sin that has enslaved,
Each of you before your birth.

For He is the one true God
Your crimes He has swept away,
He cleanses to mend where flawed,
And guiding you through each day.

Out of His mouth He has sworn,
Gone out as His righteous Word;
Of each creature that was born,
Understand what they have heard.

Unto God all knees shall bow,
Every tongue shall confess;
As they will devote a vow,
Swear allegiance to express.

Righteousness is in the Lord,
With glory is justified;
It can never be ignored,
In Him I am unified.
