Hymn No. 39:

Dear Band of Davidians

Origin: DSDA Zambia Division

Rod Quotation: 9SC1-12: 7.2.7

Tune Origin: SDAH 560

♦-1-♦
Dear band of Davidians forget not our calling,
To conserve the gospel, old paths to restore.
The first of the first fruits, saviors to Laodicea,
The breach to repair, being sound to the core.
Let’s save ourselves from this, malady so fatal,
Applying the cure, the sovereign remedy.
The Rod in the heart till the cure is completed,
Make haste dear Davidians, Christ comes, get ready.

♦-2-♦
With your soul deal truly, search deeply inside you,
Examine yourself, in the light of the Rod.
The codes have been speaking, the early rain shining,
The school of the prophets: enlightening your road.
Are you living the truth? Is the Sabbath kept right?
Do you eat correctly? Sleep on time always?
Are you true in small things? So honest in business?
Do you watch your children? Reform all your ways.

9SC1-12: 7.2.7; Series page: SCS 537:
Let us all, as a Davidian band, remember that we are called to the high office of conservators of the gospel, restorers of the old paths, repairers of the breach. We are called as the first of the “firstfruits” from Laodicea, and thus we are to serve as “saviours” to and of Laodicea (Obad. 17, 21). Hence, obviously, before we can save our brethren from the fatally pernicious malady of Laodiceanism, we must first save ourselves from it. And to do this, we must now and forever absolutely stop treating symptoms, and instead get at the cause; stop dosing ourselves first for this, then for that, but instead correctly apply the sovereign remedy, the message in the heart, until a complete cure is effected.
