This song is about a person but listening to it I thought of the Church in America. The Church as a whole is being led in so much deception. 1 John 4: 1 "Dear friends, do not believe every spirit but test the spirits to see whether  they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." It says test every spirit and people who claim they are prophets. Some people are way off but others twist it up in the truth and slowly lead people away. In the song it says does anybody see her (the church) does anybody hear her. Under the shadow of our steeple. It is going on all the time and nobody sees it. Inside the church it growing rapidly leading people astray. What our teachers, preachers, friends, even our parents we have to make sure it lines up with the word of God.There is nothing else we can trust. We have to know the word of God so we are not led astray. What you hear people saying, teaching, reading. I f you cannot find it in scripture do not believe it even if it all sounds good. Even if everyone around you agrees with it. Because as the time for the Lord to come back the wickedness and false teaching will increase and we will have to stand strong in the Lord. Ephesians 6:14 With the belt of truth buckled around you waist" Matthew 24:4- 5 "Watch out that no one deceives you. For many will come in my name, claiming , "I am the Christ" and will deceive many." Matt. 24: 11 "And many false prophets will appear and deceive many people." Matt. 24: 23-24 " SO if anyone tells you, "There he is!" or "There is the Christ!" do not believe it. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and preform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect- if that were possible."
