We’re mesmerized by deceit in disguise
We’re entranced and enslaved by darkness and lies
We’re captivated by temptation and poisoned by greed
We fall for the cunning techniques of the thief
The enemy manipulates in a spell-like trance
Wickedness is vicious; enticement is enhanced
Evil gloats in selfishness; it’s fulfilled in our pride
It corrupts and destroys so many lives
Jesus came to redeem us from the fall of such spells
The Prince of Peace saved us from the grip of hell
His sacrifice alone undoes the damage done
That’s why the Father sent His only Son
The holy chemistry in the blood of Jesus Christ
reversed the curse and brought the world new life
Jesus knew the only way to save us was through Him
His death and resurrection was the kiss that covered sin
Jesus wants us to be a part in His never-ending story
and to live with Him forever in the fullness of His glory
The Son of the Most High overcame death to give us life
His love unveils the darkness with His holy light
Jesus is the Prince who paid the people’s debt
He bought our sins through the price of His death
Jesus rules! He represents us! He is our defense!
If Jesus is for us, who could ever be against?
Unfailing love and truth have met together. Righteousness and peace have kissed! Truth springs up from the earth, and righteousness smiles down from heaven. Psalm 85:10-11
