924 Satan’s Essence Is Brutal and Evil
Verse 1
Satan builds its name through deceiving people,
creates itself as the forefront and role model.
Under false pretenses of being righteous,
it harms people, devours souls, and deceives.
Chorus
Satan wants man to go along with its evil
to oppose God’s authority and sovereignty.
Verse 2
When man sees through its schemes, plots, and vileness,
when man doesn’t wish to be trampled on and fooled,
doesn’t want to keep slaving away for it,
to be punished, destroyed alongside it,
Pre-chorus
Satan tears off its mask to reveal its true face,
its evil, vicious, ugly, and savage face.
It would love to kill all those who refuse,
those who don’t follow, who oppose evil forces.
Chorus
Satan wants man to go along with its evil
to oppose God’s authority and sovereignty.
Verse 3
Satan now can’t assume a trustworthy appearance.
Its true features are revealed under sheep’s clothing.
When its schemes are seen it will fly into a rage.
Its desire to harm and devour will grow.
Bridge
Satan is enraged when man sees the truth.
It develops a powerful cruelty toward him
for yearning for light, freedom from its grip,
showing its savage nature to defend evil.
Chorus
Satan wants man to go along with its evil
to oppose God’s authority and sovereignty.
