One by one they left us alone
Because we bow before His throne
Their hateful words cut to the bone
But we love God more than they've known
They leave church offended by truth
Pursuing sins and lusts of youth
They follow things that are uncouth
We pray they come home just like Ruth
Some family and friends have gone
But in the Lord we must press on
For Him alone can we count on
To save us from this Babylon
