Smile You'Re On Candid Camera

In God's image we were made, and to God all the Glory
Thus lucifer became dismayed in not liking this story
Of the angels he took a third coming down to the Earth
And because all of this occurred we have Jesus's Birth

Just one of many worlds that exist, yet different are we
satan in adding his own little twist saying you glorify me
he was one of the wisest being able to know man's heart
Knowing exactly what he should test in giving sin it's start

You are helpless in your defense he will sift you like wheat
His powers are too immense and you will end up in defeat
The Heavens filled with controversy as His Angels look down
All eyes upon you and me Reflecting the Glory of God's Crown

Wear God's armor in battle in the attacking of the enemy
Cut off that snakes rattle in telling people they can be free
satan will eventually get his due no need for you to be there
Jesus can read hearts too, but of this I'm sure you're aware

Job 1:6  Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.  Job 1:7 The LORD said to Satan, “From where do you come?” Then Satan answered the LORD and said, “From roaming about on the earth and walking around on it.”
