Deceitful words the Devil speaks
As fangs flick out and in;
With stench his honeyed words still reek,
Entices us to sin.
The fangs he flicks are razor sharp
To virtue cut away,
As honeyed words our minds can warp
If we let him hold sway.
Alone we cannot him resist,
And Jesus is our help;
We call on Son who takes the risk
To offer us Himself.
In every heart He blunts the strike|
Of fangs are Satan’s tongue,
And Satan howls with his dislike
Of Him came down those rungs.
For Jesus to each heart descends
On ladder from the sky,
And every heart He enters, mends
With virtues from on high.
With virtues we can with Him climb,
Bring earth to heaven’s door;
New Eden in Him we will find
With Paradise restored.
PROCLAIMING TRUTH!
