THE WORST TRAGEDY

The Creator’s Name, was replaced in vain;

To honor a Commandment,¹ that was falsely explained.

In the Hebrew text “shav,” rendered as vain;

Means do not make ‘desolate,’ therefore proclaim!

For as knowledge increases,² men’s old traditions will die,

That men may know that YAHWEH! Art THE MOST HIGH!³

For this cause HE raised Pharaoh, that HIS NAME be declared!⁴

Anything but stifled, silenced or spared.⁵

Does this not make sense? This Commandment mistaken?

When Scriptures say magnify!⁶ exalt!⁷ The Great Name we’ve forsaken.

For THOU has magnified THY Word, above all, THY NAME!⁸

Yet we have minimized The One Thing, most dear to YOUR Fame.⁹

Cursed be the man, that trusteth in man,¹⁰

For The Great Lie has been believed, throughout all of the land.

Let all the world repent, for not seeking to find:¹¹

THE ONE called YAHWEH,¹² THE FATHER of mankind.
