It matters not what others say;

And less what they may think—

So long as I walk in His way,

And of His Spirit drink.

It matters not what they decree;

And less what they may plan—

The gallows which is built for me

Will hang the gallows man.

Yet, should the gallows built for me,

Still fall to be my lot—

By life or death I will be free.

It really matters not.

No other man can shut me up,

Though prison doors are locked,

For at His table I still sup

For everyone the Son sets free

Is truly free indeed.

It matters not where you may be;

No hindrance shall impede.

So when your foes rise up like floods

To weave their wicked plot;

Remember...God alone is Judge.
