The devil is a liar
He will attack your soul
Your soul will be on fire
Let Christ take control
My spirit might be shaken
But it's not shattered
My spirit might be broken
God is still my Shepherd
My God is a loving God
I believe in Christ His son
He is my Lord
Sin is on the run
The tempter can't defeat me
He will try to push me!
On a road of self destruction
The liar feeds of destruction
My soul might be damaged;
With God on my side
I will surly manage
To stay in the light
Satan might win this battle
I will win the war
God is beside me in battle
Over my horizon, Love raw!
The liar might knock
Me off my stride
His lies, I need to block:
For love I will fight
A time will come when I fall
I will continue in the light
I answer to one call
The call of delight
The devil will attack me
He will never manage
To destroy me
Nor will I be damaged
I walk with the Son of God
I am part of His flock
The spirit in me, Christ will unlock
He will give me feelings of a Lord
Satan will try to pull me back
In Christ perseverance, I will never lack
I will continue on the righteous track
And grab Satan by its neck
Christ will give me power
To fight the destructive liar
Even in my final hour
God will lift me higher
Satan you can shake my soul
But you will never break me
When Christ is in control
My soul will always be free
