Song Number 128
GROW MORE--AS THE NAZIRITES DID
Nazirites--O can we be like them?
Can we look like them today?
They had really lo-o-ong hair
In a unique, special way.
Analyze! Let's give it attention.
Let's ignore the apostle Paul.
Can we all sport spir'tual mullets
Before we end up bald?
Nazirites--Their lifestyle was simple.
Self-denial was their role.
They would never visit the barber.
Could we too have such a goal?
Though accepting certain restrictions,
They were hipper than hippies now.
All, not just our Christian sisters,
Should have the hair part down.
Nazirites--They truly were different.
Why, they had a crowning sign.
Nowadays it's known as dandruff;
Back then nobody would mind.
So today, as God's fellow workers
Dry and itchy our scalps we'll make.
May Jehovah bless our efforts,
Setting our scalps aflake.
Nazirites--They set an example.
Care they took with lengthiness.
Truly hirsute, let us be like them;
Their hair our God e'er did bless.
Cut your costs and trust in Jehovah:
Let your lovely locks remain.
If we manage not to wig out,
Deep-rooted joy we'll gain.
