The Pure Testimony
 
1. The pure testimony put forth in the Spirit,
Cuts like a sharp two edged sword,
There's no compromising, no secret devising,
For all is made plain by the Word.
The pure testimony discovers the dross,
While men break from bondage and take up the cross,
And Babylon trembles for fear of her loss. 
 
2. Then blow ye the trumpet in pure testimony,
And let the saints hear it again;
O come ye from Egypt, from Babylon also,
And make your way over the plain.
Come, wash all your robes in the blood of the Lamb,
And walk in the Spirit, as Jesus has done,
In faith and obedience you will overcome. 
 
3. There's no persecution for lukewarm believers,
Their spirit is Babylon's own;
The pure testimony cries out separation,
Which calls us to lay our lives down;
Come out from false spirits and practices too;
The track of the Saviour keep full in your view,
The pure testimony will cut its way through. 
 
4. The battle is coming between the two kingdoms,
The armies are gathering round;
The pure testimony and human tradition 
Will come to close battle ere long;
Then gird on your armor you saints of the Lord,
And He will direct you by His living word,
The pure testimony will cut like a sword.
