I
Prayer is not ceremonial, has lots of meaning.
It can be seen from people’s prayers
God they’re directly serving.
If you take prayer as ceremonial,
then God you won’t serve well.
Without prayer, you can’t work.
Prayer brings service, it brings work.
If you’re a person who serves God,
but you’ve never been serious,
not devoted when you pray,
you will fail in serving this way.
II
It can be said that if your prayers aren’t true or earnest,
then God won’t count you, you’ll be ignored.
The Holy Spirit won’t work in you.
If you take prayer as ceremonial,
then God you won’t serve well.
Without prayer, you can’t work.
Prayer brings service, it brings work.
If you’re a person who serves God,
but you’ve never been serious,
not devoted when you pray,
you will fail in serving this way.
III
If you often come to God and pray,
it proves you take Him seriously.
If you work yourself and do not pray,
and behind His back do that and this,
you’re doing your own thing,
(you are not serving God,)
you’re doing your own work.
(Condemned then, are you not?)
IV
It seems like God you have not blasphemed,
done no disturbing, but doing your thing is interrupting.
By nature, you resist God.
Without prayer, you can’t work.
Prayer brings service, it brings work.
If you’re a person who serves God,
but you’ve never been serious,
not devoted when you pray,
you will fail in serving this way.
