Lyrics
The 25th of December
Is it a day for us to remember Jesus' birth?
What's the Christmas fruitage all over the earth?
Revelries and lies
When our Savior said "Celebrate that I died"
If we do it his way
We will gain everlasting life
chorus:
By their fruits you will know them
Do they produce what Jehovah showed them
Or do it their own way?
Don't go beyond what's written
By their fruits you will know them
As Jesus told them
"Go in through the narrow gate"
Nothing else is fitting
"Easter" the very name
Is taken from a goddess of Canaanite fame, Ashtoreth
Can we fuse Jehovah's worship with hers in one breath?
It leads down the road
That's broad and spacious
We won't reach our goal
Don't let His Son have to say
"You didn't do my Father's will, so get away"
Bridge:
Grapes don't come from thorns
Good fruit is brought
Only in the way Jesus taught
