October 31st
They say it’s the night of demons and the devil,
Yet little children run free scaring strangers
And knocking doors, receiving bribes to go next door;
They say it’s a night when the devil roams free
Well he ain’t coming anywhere near me!
I have a Light that’s brighter than night,
I have the Light that emanates from heaven
The Light of the World that scares the devil
And sends him and his demons scuttling back to hell;
And the Light of the World sets my heart free
As I watch for the day the Light becomes real to us all,
They say it’s the night the devil roams the streets,
Well I have the Light that gives the devil a fright
And my Light’s alright, so no night of fright for me!
