The Bible Tells Me So

The Devil keeps whispering in my ear, but I ignore 
him.                                                                                                                           
My God keeps whispering in my ear, I listen to 
HIM.                                                                                                                               
The Devil keeps pushing me 
around,                                                                                                                        
but my God holds me close, safe, and sound.                                                          
The Devil can keep 
trying,                                                                                                                          
but I am going to keep denying.                                                                                  
He is not my father, he is not my friend, and he is not my savior, who died for my 
sins.                                                                                                                               
The Devil is evil and brings people 
pain,                                                                                                                              
but my God is good, so I connect to his 
chain.                                                                                                                             
My God loves me, and this I know, because the bible tells me so.
