Shepherds On Wandering Course
Sacred Duties Failed To Keep
The Lords Flock In Naked Neglect
Scattered And About, In Disarray
No Time Left To Shear
None Left To Care
Bitter Waters Left To Drink
Thorny Pastures Left To Graze Upon
In Haste He Called In The Wolves
His Flock To Keep While Away
Chasing After The Caravan
The Gold, The Silver The Mammon
The Dog And The Pig
Strange Garments Litter The House
Strange Spirits Fly About
All Fences Broken Down
The House Badly Breached
As Sagging Skins Cling To Brittle Bones
Starvation Pervades The House
As Death Hangs Over The Altar
That Man Of Sin Astride
In Defiant Habitation
In Flagrant Violation
And Utter Desecration
Strangled Near To Death
But With Hold To Silver Chord
With Hold To Mercy Strings
The Remnants Cry With Resolve
“Restore Your Church, O Lord!”
