Jesus Can Restore What Satan Takes Away

Jesus Can Restore What Satan Takes Away!

Satan is out to destroy
 this country's youth.
By twisting anything from 
God's word...  The truth!

He wants them to despise authority. 
 Those who serve above.
And plants in them
 a false security, and love.

Drugs, sex and violence are 
"flashed before their eyes."
What their parents have taught them.  
They "despise."

Many believe the road they're following
 will bring them joy.
A life of emptiness and a "false love"
 is what they employ.

Many don't know the difference
 between "right and wrong."
Any sense of morality... 
 does not "belong."

Though many wasted years
 many have spent.
They'll find true happiness.  
When to Christ...  They repent!
