The Big Fall

He forges swords in anger His mission to destroy His soul is dark oh! How he hates that God exposed his pride and sin, for all celestial splendor was stripped, his wrong exposed. Once anointed cherub adorned with special beauty The model of perfection. Music was a special gift you had, but pride brought bad desires To raise your throne above the stars of God. And exalt your place in Heaven. Oh! Foolish special angel with music in your being To think you could surpass your Maker Yes, pride comes before the fall its true inciting other angels too. Cast down to earth in shame you fell Your cohorts came with you Disgraced and shamed you fell to earth your shame revealed, exposed. So, forging swords to seek revenge You steal and lie and kill Captain of black darkness The swords are hurled in greatest rage ripping people's lives apart. Once peaceful men now turn their love to hatred crime and murder you incite and mankind is your prey, destroyed for lack of Knowledge. Make haste oh Lord and bind the serpent we earnestly implore For righteous souls know this full well his time is running out while waiting, Lord we use Your Word and fight him down below but still within our hearts we say oh Come! Lord Jesus, Come
