Living in a world with many turbulences and disorders, we navigate.
With shifting shadows of time, our cultures are often in unrest and havoc.
As unbelief, violence, wickedness, and corruption rage on, we’re tested.
Holding fast to our confession, we stand in shifting shadows, invested.
Without wavering, we press on to solid ground, keeping us protected.
With sure foundations in testing, lives built on the Rock remain secure.
Standing in unbelief and disobedience, lives built on shadows won’t endure.
The foolish build on the shifting shadows of time only to be led astray.
Caught in the collective reasoning of time, they stand without hope.
In the end, the shifting shadows give way to the fullness of Satan’s way.
Morals give way to the shifting shadows of time, deceiving countless.
As hearts grow cold, deception takes over, leading them to denounce.
Drunk in their desires, they march on, foolishly to their own destruction.
Marching to what’s seemingly right in their own eyes, they’re led astray.
Leaving paths of trouble for the righteous ones, they march on.
A torrent of unbelief at hand, they come as brutal despisers of good.
With the shifting shadows of time, righteousness is considered evil.
While evil is considered as good, they demonstrate their wanton desires.
Many depart from the faith as blasphemers and slanderers have their way.
As deceiving spirits and doctrines of devils are released, many are prey.
Enduring sound doctrine, as shadows shift, we’re secure in Him.
Being watchful in all things, we don’t give heed to doctrines of demons.
Being diligent by rightly dividing the truth, we stand in His righteousness.
Shunning profanity and vain babbling, we stand as ungodliness increases.
In righteousness, we depart from all iniquity, standing on a solid foundation.
Knowing that Jesus is preparing an eternal home, gives hope to stand.
With hope as an anchor for the soul, we’re at peace with shifting sand.
When the sands give way to a world falling apart, we have an anchor.
As the storm rages on, our hope in the eternal is steadfast and sure.
As we hold fast to our confession of hope, He who is faithful will deliver.
