The Demise of the Godly Man

By Rev. Dean Beaty 11/4/09

Psalm 12:1-3 “Help, LORD; for the godly man ceaseth; for the

faithful fail from among the children of men. They speak vanity

every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double

heart do they speak. The LORD shall cut off all flattering lips, and

the tongue that speaketh proud things:” (KJV)

“Help, Lord: for the Godly man ceaseth.”

For righteousness has suffered death.

We have turned instead to our own way.

And God's Word we do not obey.

How long will God put up with our pride,

When we set all of His laws aside?

We put ourselves upon our own throne.

And tell the Lord to leave us alone.

God will not always strive with mankind.

A place for rebels God has designed.

His patience is long and mercy is great.

But there's coming a time when it is too late.

Honest repentance our God will still hear.

So call upon Him while He is near.

If there's conviction, please do not delay.

The God of all grace will not turn away.
