3JOHN – Hold the Line by Bro H

Verse 1 The elder unto Gaius, whom I love in the truth Beloved, I wish above all things you prosper as your soul does too I rejoiced when the brethren came and testified what you do You walk in truth, and I have no greater joy than to hear that in you Verse 2 You do faithfully whatever you do to the brethren and to strangers as well They bore witness of your love before the assembly—you’ve done right by them Send them forward in a manner worthy of God, for the Name they went out Taking nothing from the nations, we support such men without doubt Chorus Walk in truth, stand firm, don’t bend Hold the line until the end Help the ones who carry light Stand with truth and what is right Some will rise and take control Speak against and try to rule But don’t follow what is wrong Hold the line, stay steady, strong Verse 3 I wrote unto the assembly, but Diotrephes would not receive Loving preeminence, speaking against us, refusing those who believe He casts out brethren, blocks the truth, and lifts himself in the place Not by truth, not by love—but by control and empty display Verse 4 Beloved, do not follow what is evil, but follow what is good He that does good is of God, but the other has not understood Demetrius has a good report from all, and from truth itself as well We bear record—you know our witness, and what we say is true and held Chorus Walk in truth, stand firm, don’t bend Hold the line until the end Help the ones who carry light Stand with truth and what is right Some will rise and take control Speak against and try to rule But don’t follow what is wrong Hold the line, stay steady, strong Bridge I have much to write, but not with pen and ink I trust I shall see you, and we’ll speak plainly, think Peace be to you—friends greet you by name Not all who gather are walking the same Outro Greet the friends, stand where truth remains Walk it out, don’t play their games
