Lyrics: 1 Woe to the prophets, Who God's blood-bought people deceive, Who teach them to trust in their idols of dust, And falsehood, not truth, to believe; Who preach but for pay, and who lead men astray, And daily God's Spirit do grieve. Refrain: Woe, woe, woe! How fast to the judgment they go! No God and no hope, In darkness they grope, By passion and greed, by habit and need Bound hard unto sin, No Savior within, To judgment, to judgment they go. 2 Woe to the prophets, Who for their false doctrines do fight, Who eat, drink and play, (but they seldom do pray,) Who trust in their numbers and might; Who join hand in hand to enslave the whole land The self-loving foes to the right. [Refrain] 3 Woe to the prophets, False teachers who call evil good, Who darkness call light and who call the wrong right, To get filthy lucre and food. Their judgment is come: oh, how awful their doom, The doom of the truth-hating brood! [Refrain] Used With Tune: WOE TO THE PROPHETS
