This World's Deceptions
THIS WORLD'S DECEPTIONS
Let go of this world, my friend
Your choices lead to your fate
Get out of its tangled web
Get out before it's too late
````````````````````````````
Guard your eyes and ears today
And even your touch and your taste
There's a foe who wants you destroyed
Don't let your life come to waste
```````````````````````````````
Turn your eyes heavenward, friend
Devour the Bible with tears
Bend over backward to find
What will remedy all of our fears
``````````````````````````````````````
The Creator who made us still lives
He is ready to lead us away
From all of this world's deceptions
If we only let Him bear sway
`````````````````````````````````````
He knows just what we are needing
What will bring true joy and peace
So let Him do all the leading
Then all evil and suffering will cease
