The sonnet calls for exposing and opposing the pervasive evil in society, which has become so common it goes unnoticed. It urges Christians to use Christ’s truth and love to reveal and combat sin in all its forms. With Jesus as the guide, the poem encourages the church to stand united, wielding His truth as a sword to defeat darkness and proclaim His victory.

In shadows deep, where sin does freely roam,
Evil weaves its threads through hearts grown blind.
Once clear to all, its forms now call no home,
Yet Christ’s pure light reveals what lies behind.

No longer cloaked, its guile we must unmask,
With fervent zeal, expose its wicked art.
In every deed, in word, in fleeting task,
Oppose with love the venom of its heart.

For Jesus reigns, His truth a piercing sword,
To cut through lies that bind the soul in chains.
His cross our guide, His Spirit our accord,
To stand as one where righteousness remains.

O church arise, with Christ as head and King,
Defy the dark—His victory we sing!
