What the Spirit says to the Churches Is what he said to a church of old: You who have ears to hear me, listen! O how I wish you were hot or cold! What the Spirit says to the Churches He said of old to a church his Bride: You who have ears to hear me, listen! You loved me once but your love has died! What the Spirit says to the Churches He said of old, who is First and Last: You who have ears to hear me, listen! In times of testing you hold me fast! What the Spirit says to the Churches Is what he said who lives evermore: You who have ears to hear me, listen! I set before you and Open Door!
