The Pop Icons

About the Lord, some people are not concerning,
To show their own value is what they are wanting.
Instead of going to every place evangelizing,
With others, how much they will gain, they are disputing.

To save souls is not the prize disputed,
The prize is to be the most famous shepherd.
To be like a celebrity is what the shepherds are wanting,
They are not concerned about the more lives they are gaining.

They buy time on many channels of television,
They do their best to maximize their exhibition.
About their sheep, they start to forget,
With time, they think about the money they will get.

Wealth and power are their targets,
During the services, they start to do a market.
For the faithful, too many products they will show,
Saying that is everything for the work to grow,
But for the church that money will not go.

These men always ask for big offerings,
They always say there will be many blessings.
The humble and salvation gospel, they do not want to preach,
They only want to get money and become rich.

Of these kinds of men, you must keep away,
Seek those who preach the truth every day.
Instead of the pop icon, prefer that humble shepherd,
Because through Jesus humility, we were saved.
