What a mess. Ross should have declined and moved on.
Good Afternoon and whatnot.
When I was a boy in the 1970s my public elementary school had a great music teacher, Mrs Howard. One of the songs that we used to sing was "Lord, Lord" by Robert Schmertz. It's a Gospel Folk song.
Here is a recording by the Folk Smiths. Below are the lyrics from the liner notes of the album.

# LORD, LORD, I 'YE GOT SOME SINGING TO DO.
"Oh Lord, I've Got Some Singing To Do " was our opening
song in many concerts and workshops. The words and
music of the chorus are well suited for any group, and
the song sets a very good mood for an hour or so of
singing. According to Tony Saletan of Cambridge,
Mass., LORD, LORD, was written by Robert Schmertz of
Pittsburgh, Penn. We learned it from Tony and used
our own arrangement, although we never sang it in
quite the same way twice.
CHORUS:
OH, LORD, I' YE GOT SOME SINGING TO DO (3)
Don't call me Lord too soon.
The Lord made the world in just six days,
And on the seventh day his name we praise,
The earth so green and the sky so blue,
OH, LORD, I 'YE GOT SOME SINGING TO DO.
(CHORUS)
Talk about the moon, the queen of night,
That bathes all the world with her silver light,
And lights my way the whole night through,
OH, LORD, etc.
(CHORUS)
Talk about the sun, the friendly sun,
That wakes me in the morning when the day's begun,
Warms my soul the whole day through,
OH, LORD, etc.
(CHORUS)
Talk about the rain, the drizzling rain,
That falls upon the mountain and on the plain,
Weeps for me the whole night through,
OH, LORD, etc.
(CHORUS)
Talk about the breeze that blows to me,
The voices of my friends wherever they be,
And I know they,re Singing too,
OH, LORD, etc.
(CHORUS)

I'm going to write some copy for a friend and a little bit for our 757BTC.org meetup next month.
How about you?
Thank you for the correction.
Good Morning.
It's simple, they are Satanist in Arabic they are inspired by Shaiton.
When a Muslim gets ready to pray or speak he will say, " Ow, ud zu belay he min a Shaiton, ar razheem." (Sorry, I've butchered that up) in order to ask God to keep the Shaiton from messing up the words said.
There are no icons or nonsense in a mosque to distract you from praying.
Certainly a Christian will not want to practice as a Muslim but in order to serve, minister or do business with a Christian will respect the property of all people. Jesus didn't go into the Pagan Temples or Mosques (yes there where no Mosques in his time) or Zoroastrian houses of worship, turn tables over and chase the money changers out. He wanted to repair the Jewish house of God!
