Analysis of All I Can Say
For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light. - Luke 8:17
Therefore whatsoever ye have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which ye have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. - Luke 12:3
Exposure, exposure, before our very eyes.
The truth shall be known behind all the lies.
The canaries shall sing; the whistles shall blow.
People will see the truth, not actors in a show.
In every season that we are in
we must have soft hearts, but thick skin.
Soft hearts able to forgive one another,
our enemies too, not just our sister and brother.
Thick skin to take whatever the devil tries to throw our way;
we must stand firm on God's word, that's all I can say.
