Evil Personified

Evil scourge of the earth so full of waste, plotter of mankind's fast downward pace. Breaker of peace and stiffler of song, with wicked power and purpose upon, the action of men in opposing always, God's Holy word with shadows of grey. Tempter of hearts, making men move; in ways of hate to shed innocent blood. Your hostile world in opposition to truth, wreaks ruin and misery with little reproof. Destruction of mankind is your design, without relief or recourse to find. The father of lies, you lustfully move, denying the truth, falsehood to prove. Taking advantage with all evil means, Winning the battle without effort, it seems. Sin, as a virtue, you proudly proclaim, with beauty and pleasure and promise of fame. With multitudes in your will, you conspire, to consign, even God's people to the fire. Seducing millions in false religion's glow, with deceit, corruption, and murder in tow. Oh, evil personified, how far from God, do you so slyly wield your harsh rod. Disguising yourself as an angel of light, bringing confusion with all of your might. Make haste, lay waste, as is your want to do, God has prepared a proper place for you. Prov.8:36 "those that hate me, love death." Lionel
