I see the Bride in a circle
And the silver sword of the Spirit in her midst
The sword is revolving around the circle
One by one each person stands before its point
One by one each is shaken
And the devil shakes behind
The sword and Satan
And the people inbetween

When I am caught between the blade and the foe
God bids me be still.  Be still!
The sword is deadlier than the Devil

Let go neither of Me nor your brother’s hand
Forgive him quickly!
In the light of this sword he is no more guilty than you.

The church is in a circle
The sword of the Holy One in her midst
It revolves around the circle
One by one each soul before its point
While in his terror Satan hides behind us as his shield
The sword and Satan
And the people inbetween

My people, you know in part
But the whole matter is plain to me
Trust me
Obey me, I order you aright
Control your spirits, they are subject to you
The sword is not a weapon against you, or your brother
And you are not called to wound, but to reconcile!
Drop your finger!  Put up your hands!
My command
Love one another without measure
Beyond reason
As I have loved you.

I will deal with the snake.
Take heed to yourselves and your brethren
And see to it you grieve not my holy Spirit with your temper
He has borne much
Because of your pride, and your impatience, and your ignorance
But he will faithfully finish his work
And you will yet rejoice.

No-one escapes the sword.
But it is for your defense
To vanquish the adversary from your midst.
Know ye not that the enemies of God slay each other?
Stay your hand!  Rather be slain!
Submit your grievance to me, and accuse not!  I alone will justify.
If you submit not your pride, I will wound your pride
If you admit not your ignorance
You will move in the mighty strength of your ignorance,
And none of my power.
If you hold not your peace,
Your temper will betray you to oppression
To tyranny

Sumbit to my freedom and bend to the helmet of your salvation
Do not be found naked, but clothe yourselves with Christ.

He is gentle and meek, lowly and humble in heart
He spoke not back to his accusers, neither resisted the hand of man.

Repair the breaches.  Quickly forgive.
Reconcile with your brother
It is joy in the end
