From the recordings ⚔️ Rod Album: First Strike — The Rod Series and Wolves Unmasked
🎶 Wolves In Shepherd’s Clothing (Rod Series – Living Faithfully Broadcast)
Artist: Crown And Cloud Kingdom Music / Kingdom Tunes™
A haunting prophetic ballad and modern hymn, Wolves In Shepherd’s Clothing walks listeners through the sorrowful journey of betrayal, spiritual abuse, and eventual restoration by the Shepherd of our souls. With tender acoustic guitar, piano, cello, and a swelling choir of truth, this Ready Word pierces through silence and denial with a warning cry:
🎙️ “This is not about one man, or one church…
This is the hidden story of how wolves flatter, abuse, cover, and destroy —
But the Rod of His Mouth is striking, and the truth is rising.”
Each verse unfolds the devastating impact of wolves in pulpits — and the systemic cover-up by elders and boards who stay silent. Yet through the ashes, the Shepherd’s rod brings justice, healing, and hope.
🎶 “Oh my sister, learn the red flags
God will heal, He’ll show you how
The wolf may hunt, but truth will shine
The Shepherd’s rod is yours, it’s mine!”
This broadcast interweaves spoken preaching, choir echoes, and heartfelt vocals in a style that merges country storytelling with modern lament. Its power lies not just in exposure, but in the redemptive arc of mercy, marriage, legacy, and divine justice.
The closing tag reminds us:
🎶 “Jesus heals what wolves destroy… Jesus restores eternal joy.” 🎶

🎙️ Spoken Intro (DO NOT SING)
“This is not about one man, or one church, or one town.
This is the hidden story of how wolves flatter, abuse, cover, and destroy —
while elders look away, and sheep are crushed beneath the silence.
But the Rod of His Mouth is striking, and the truth is rising.”
🎶 Verse 1
She loved Jesus, served with her hands
Volunteered gladly, answered demands
In the church office, missions she led
Pure was her heart, by the Spirit fed
Her husband labored, a working man’s wage
Anointed in prayer, steady in faith
But a wolf in the pulpit began to scheme
With flattery whispers and poisoned dreams
🎶 Chorus
Oh my sister, learn the red flags
When gifts are chains, when kindness drags
When wolves disguise in shepherd’s clothes
The truth is hidden, but Jesus knows
🎶 Verse 2
Unexpected gifts are offered, “a blessing,” they said
Her husband could not, so her heart was misled
But gifts are a chain, and debts must be paid
The wolf’s mask of kindness begins to fade
Her husband confronted, the anger was fierce
Denials were bold, but the lies could not pierce
He said, “Step down, you’ve disqualified”
But the board chose silence, and justice died
🎶 Chorus (Repeat with Echo)
Oh my sister, learn the red flags (now!)
When gifts are chains, when kindness drags (no!)
When wolves disguise in shepherd’s clothes
The truth is hidden, but Jesus knows
🎶 Bridge (Choir Fire)
Wolves in pulpits → (Will be exposed!)
Elders silent → (Truth still grows!)
Cover-ups crumble → (Rod will strike!)
Justice thunders → (In Jesus Christ!)
(repeat x2 with intensity)
🎶 Verse 3 (Reflective)
The husband knelt with a broken cry
The wife fought demons that said, “Just die.”
But Jesus entered the closet of pain
Mercy triumphed, love remained
Years rolled by, fifty strong
Children laughing, a family song
The wolf died bitter, alone, despised
But the Lamb still reigns, and truth survives
🎶 Final Chorus [Repeat x2]
Oh my sister, learn the red flags
God will heal, He’ll show you how
The wolf may hunt, but truth will shine
The Shepherd’s rod is yours, it’s mine!
🎶 Tag (Soft / Reflective, Fade Out)
“Jesus heals… what wolves destroy…
Jesus restores… eternal joy.”
