Tamed and Tied

To give glory to Satan I'm sorry to sound, Though bitter a truth I've certainly found: Some sons Satan has strictly tamed and tied, (Forbid O Lord I might have lied). On wicked ways their thoughts hidebound, As devil dictates they gullibly go round; They have become his bond-servants and lieges, In enemy's bondage who artfully besieges. And they sorrowfully lead their breath on earth, The dragon depraved them their mission and mirth; Them he mistreats and mangles and mocks, And laughs at loud and in the searing Lake of fire, he locks. But listen, you who are tamed and tied: How long will devil destroy you and deride? Subject your soul to the Savior's side, And He will right reward you with a free ride.

Good advice about giving your soul to our Savior. The rewards are many. I do believe we often blame a "devil" when we have the power to stop doing evil. Interesting work! Best wishes, Carolyn
