Inner Visions - Whip Them


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

A mi seh, Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!
Whip them out of the Temple
Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!
Whip them until they stumble
A mi seh, Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!
Whip them out of the Temple
Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!
Whip them until they crumble
Matthew 21:12 - And Jesus went into the temple
of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought
in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the
moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold
doves,
Mark 11:15 - And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus
went into the temple, and began to cast out them
that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew
the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of
them that sold doves;
John 2:13-15 - And the Jews' passover was at hand,
and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. And found in the
temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves,
and the changers of money sitting: And when he had
made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all
out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen;
and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew
the tables;
I see wolves in sheep's clothing
On church day they stand upright
The rest of the week they walk round
They argue, they fuss, they fight
Matthew 7:15 - Beware of false prophets, which
come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly
they are ravening wolves.
Hey, Mr Pastor on the pulpit
By example you've got to lead
1 Timothy 3:2 - A bishop then must be blameless,
the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good
behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;
1 Timothy 3:12 - Let the deacons be the husbands
of one wife, ruling their children and their own
houses well.
You better wake up the sleeping masses
And dash away your blasted greed

Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!... etc
 
Render your heart and not your garment
Joel 2:13 - And rend your heart, and not your
garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he
is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of
great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.
What's inside you is what you seize
But you better be dressed right for church
Or you'd wonder if you're diseased

They watch you from head to toe
And everyone has got to know
That your top didn't match the bottom
And your hem-line just there for show

Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!... etc

Evangelist, Mr Greedy
You're asking for too much green
And your works for the needy
Wishy-washy and seldom seen

How can you look in the mirror
And your conscience still be a guide?
With hungry people all around you
Still you're feeding your own backside

Whip them, Jah Jah, Jah Jah, whip them!... etc
