Whitewashed Walls

It seems there’s nought that they don’t know
How long to God they pray -Mt.6:5
The Pharisees of long ago
Are still with us today

The finest robes to church they wear -Mt.23:5
Like those who’ve gone before
But then God’s flock they’ll rip and tear -Mt.23:24
Pursuing every flaw

In church they cry as on the street -Mt.6:5
As wheat; they seem to stand -Mt.13:26
They love to take the highest seat -Mt.23:6
But not in Jesus’ hand

True righteousness, must theirs excel -Mt.5:20
No wrinkle, spot or stain -Eph.5:27
All hypocrites are bound for hell
Not one in Christ will reign

Their whitewashed walls by Christ are seen -Mt.23:27
God knows what lies beneath
To man, they seem as Jesus’ queen
Too few; can see the wreath

Oh yes, in church they’re with us still -Mt.13:26
Their fruits are seen by all -Mt.7:20
Best pay no heed, their yeast can kill -Mt.16:6
And bring a child to fail

Our brother Paul, was once as these Act.23:6
He too thought he was wise Php.3:4-6
Till Jesus brought him to his knees -Act.9:4
To open up his eyes -Act.9:18+Php.3:7

God said “My grace must you suffice -2Cor.12:9
I’ve work for you to do -Act.13:2
Your life you too; must sacrifice -Act.9:16
[FONT='Times New Roman','serif']As I have done for you”[/FONT][FONT='Times New Roman','serif'] -2Cor.5:14-15 [/FONT]
