man the more I think about the words to that song the more it sounds like a rythmical mind numbing propoganda that was slowly isolating us from humanity.."shun the world leave it alone"
wasnt that a verse?
"The way of the truth is the best way of living. No better way can there be found."

1. The way of the truth is the best way of living.
No better way can there be found.
Christ Jesus has taught us the value of giving,
That happiness spreads all around.
Make the truth your own.
May your faith to all be shown.
By the way you do conduct yourself,
You make known that the truth is your own.
2. By putting God first and him actively praising,
The world and its friendship you’ll lose.
To those without faith, it is truly amazing
That God’s righteous way you did choose.
Make the truth your own.
Shun the world; leave it alone.
As to God Jehovah you draw near,
You make known that the truth is your own.
3. The Devil will ever resort to deception,
But him you can firmly oppose.
The large shield of faith will provide sure protection,
And with it you’ll ward off his blows.
Make the truth your own.
Satan’s wiles are not unknown.
Putting on the armor God supplies,
You make known that the truth is your own.
4. The flesh is so weak, and the heart too is desp’rate.
With this sinful state you contend.
But please be assured that you can overcome it,
For God is your Helper and Friend.
Make the truth your own.
To bad ways do not be prone.
If your body members you control,
You make known that the truth is your own.

Just look at the fine example of thought reform in this song:
1. Most favored are those who today
Will heed divine instruction.
The work of those who look to God
Is blessed with fine production.
But since we are afflicted by
Inherent imperfection,
We need to learn with humbleness
To give our God subjection.
2. ‘Conduct yourselves as lesser ones,’
Christ Jesus recommended.
It makes for peace and unity,
And this, indeed, is splendid.
A fine example he did set.
It was his greatest pleasure
To be submissive to his God
And serve him in full measure.
3. We wisely then should take the lead
In hon’ring one another
And keep in mind that Jesus died
For him who is our brother.
To God our brothers all belong;
To each one he gives talents.
So let us act as lesser ones
And keep our spir’tual balance.
4. The principle of headship is
An aid to recognizing
How we should keep self out of sight
And love be emphasizing.
God’s spirit is available
To help us, lest we stumble.
Our good relationship with God
Will keep us ever humble. -

1. God Jehovah told Joshua:
‘From my Law do not stray.
Read each day in an undertone,
Then take care to obey.
Let it guide you in all you do,
From your mouth not depart.
Then successful will be your way
As the truth guides your heart.
Then successful will be your way
As the truth guides your heart.’
2. When the kings ruled in Israel
And obeyed God’s command:
‘Ev’ry king for himself must write
God’s Law in his own hand
And must read in it all his days
That he humble might be.’
Then Jehovah would bless his realm;
Lengthened days he would see.
Then Jehovah would bless his realm;
Lengthened days he would see.
3. In the Bible we find the way
God would have us to live.
Since we cannot direct our step,
Help to us he must give (via the faithful and discreet slave)
If we’re feeding on his own thoughts, (that's right folks, don't be thinking you can think for yourselves)
We’ll come to know his will.
When our thinking is trained by God, the WBTS
HisTheir commands we’ll fulfill.
When our thinking is trained by God,the WBTS
HisTheircommands we’ll fulfill. -
