- Psalm 97:10 — Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
- Proverbs 8:13 — The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
- Amos 5:15 — Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
- Romans 12:9 — Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.
O ye who love the Lord with burning zeal,
Arise! The summons rings through shadowed hours;
The ancient serpent twists in barren wastes,
His poison seeps, his realm of thorns devours.
In Iran’s iron seat, where fear holds court,
Tyrants grind the humble under heel,
Mock the heavens with arrogant decree,
And loose their fury on the wound they deal.
Yet God hath sworn in covenant of fire:
The proud shall fall, the wicked find no rest;
His patient arm, though long restrained, shall rise,
To break the oppressor, lay the proud to dust.
Behold their fortresses in ruin cast,
Their captains silenced by the avenging stroke;
The vital waters tremble at His tread,
As justice marches, clad in righteous smoke.
Against all evil in its lawless stride,
Injustice reigning, immorality’s flood,
Base anger unchecked, false accusations multiplied,
Envy and greed that thirst for others’ blood;
Lust’s burning chain and love of power and gold,
Blasphemy that mocks the Name most high,
The rising tide of Satanism bold,
And doctrines dark that demons multiply;
We war against the prosperous false gospel’s lie,
That feeds on love of money’s cursed root,
Lukewarmness choking churches till they die,
And hearts grown cold to Scripture’s living truth.
Show no mercy to anti-Semitism’s stain,
That turns against the seed that God did bless—
We stand as one ‘gainst every form of shame,
And call the darkness into righteousness.
Then lift the ensign high, of truth and grace,
Of mercy joined to unrelenting might;
Though strife endure through many weary days,
The dawn will come, and darkness take its flight.
Rise up, O faithful, girded in His strength!
Confront the lie, proclaim the living Word;
Till every knee within that darkened land
Shall bow before the risen, sovereign Lord.
The Lord reigns; let the earth be glad with fear;
He guards His own, and scatters every foe.
His justice flows as rivers ever clear—
Glory to the Lamb, forevermore. Amen.
