Lyrics
Prove ye, prove ye ev'ry spirit,
As the Master did command it;
Know their works, not words alone,
Men, as trees, by fruits are known.
Are their fruits, their works and teaching
Based on doctrines Christ was preaching?
Do they love and teach the truth?
Will their wisdom God approve?
Thus their righteousness beholding,
All in outward form unfolding,
Inwardly they will appear
Hostile to Thy children here.
He who lives in true obedience
Can discern the voice and presence
Of such strangers which draw near;
May we flee when they appear.
Though the wolves be ever raging,
Thou Thy fold art still defending.
When such spirits do assail,
We, who know Thee, will prevail.
Lord, do Thou dispel confusion,
Erring ones free from delusion.
Saviour, may Thy fold increase,
Grant us comfort, joy and peace!
As the Master did command it;
Know their works, not words alone,
Men, as trees, by fruits are known.
Are their fruits, their works and teaching
Based on doctrines Christ was preaching?
Do they love and teach the truth?
Will their wisdom God approve?
Thus their righteousness beholding,
All in outward form unfolding,
Inwardly they will appear
Hostile to Thy children here.
He who lives in true obedience
Can discern the voice and presence
Of such strangers which draw near;
May we flee when they appear.
Though the wolves be ever raging,
Thou Thy fold art still defending.
When such spirits do assail,
We, who know Thee, will prevail.
Lord, do Thou dispel confusion,
Erring ones free from delusion.
Saviour, may Thy fold increase,
Grant us comfort, joy and peace!
