His Spirit says

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



I am not saying anything new
I’m only speaking the words that are true
The word of God I have in my hand
I’m only speaking what He has planned

He’s telling you ahead of time
So, you will not commit these crimes
He only wants what’s best for you
That’s why He tells you what is true

You cannot fault Him or place blame
Upon my Father’s holy name
So, don’t blame Jesus he told you
The holy Word of God is true

Don’t use his Name as if a curse
Because you’re doing what is worst
His holy Name you should revere
And worship Him in reverent fear

All of God’s children worship
Him in spirit and in truth AMEN!
