Truth attacked

Fiery darts of doubt, temptation;
shield and armour for protection:
faith in truth defeats deception,
exposing lies, dissimulation;
righteousness from His salvation;
strengthened, tell of revelation:
pardon, life, regeneration;
standing firm, withstanding Satan.

Sword of truth eradicating
strange ideas that are wafting,
crafty tales that cause much straying
and distract us from obeying,
so from joy, peace, safety slipping:
teachers true save from much tripping,
help us grow, remain upstanding
dangerous errors’ pull withstanding

cf Paul’s letter to the Ephesian church chapter 4:11-15
and chapter 6:10-20
