The Devil Is Not Your Friend

The devil is not your friend,
Nor will he reward your loyal deeds,
He lurks around in silence
looking for someone to deceive,
The devil is not your friend,
Nor will he ever fulfill your desires,
He’s just using you as his puppet
to lure more into eternal fires,
For every sin committed in life,
Required a large sacrifice,
So look up, real soon
my perishing friends,
Ask the God of the universe to heal and mend,
Your heart, soul and mind
For we are not promised tomorrows time,
Make it right with the Maker of the universe,
Humble yourself before it gets worse,
His grace will lift you high
His blood is your alibi,
His blood makes you clean,
My dear world you were already redeemed.

Aren't the devil and god just two sides of the same coin ? I'm sure if I believed in any of this nonsense I'd go to the devils discos they would surely be much more fun !

hmmm I'd make sure I were right before banking on the devil to be my friend...eternity is a very long time to be wrong!
