Satan You'Re Nothing But a Liar
Satan--you tried to destroy
me and tried to take it!
You're a liar and deceiver--
and I won't forget it!
I was "your slave" and bowed
to your every rule.
I can see now... I was listening to a fool!
You had me in your trap--
and I was going to lose!
Until that day when someone
told me the good news!
I heard of a saviour's love and it
became more revealing.
I soon had a new hope and for once--
a good feeling!
Knowing that in my
discouragement and despair.
There was a God who loves
me and who cares!
I asked; "Jesus--would you take
someone like me?"
"I need your help and
need to be set free!"
As soon as I gave him my
heart-felt invitation.
He brought true joy
and eternal salvation.
He loves me so much...
I have no reason to complain!
When I stumble and fall..
I call on his name!
What Satan has taken...
Jesus has given much more!
He truly is what life is worth living for!
