Habakkuk 2

Then the Lord replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay."

The Spreading of Lies

The lies of those who sin are spread

As they plot evil on their beds

For they are not clear in the head

For sin controls their minds instead


No wheel of fortune up ahead

For to their sins they are not dead

For on the lies of others fed

And they do not God’s judgments dread


They take their lives now all in stride

For they are surely filled with pride

And God, He is not on their side

For they in Him do not abide


They sin in secret, so they hide

Behind closed doors and fantasize

What life would be when in disguise

Reality not realize


Escape them when the truth not face

For all their mem’ries not erase

But they, they haven’t got a case

Why lusts of flesh they choose to chase


They spin their wheels and go nowhere

Because the truth they will not share

No acts of kindness them to spare

Their sins control them everywhere


Yet God is calling out to them

Repent of sin and be forgiven

Obey the Lord, for your own sake

Regarding truth no longer fake


Now walk with God, integrity,

And from your sins you will be free

Now live in truth, in righteousness,

And you’ll be free from your distress
