When I was young I just believed everything that I heard, just what I heard.
|
|
But now the only thing that I can believe is God's word, His Holy Word.
|
|
But even now sometimes my doubts will open up for me a world that I just despise.
|
|
And then the shades come down, the lights turn off,
|
|
and I'm left alone with my helpless cries.
|
|
When I hear all his lies. All of the devil's wicked lies.
|
|
If you believe them your faith just dies.
|
|
Don't you be a fool, don't you even open up,
|
|
Or expose yourself to just one of his wicked lies.
|
|
|
I want to go around the world and prove Jesus lives, you know He lives.
|
|
And we're not only friends, we're family, we're relatives, relatives.
|
|
But when I'm far from home and so alone, and my imagined fears get so oversized
|
|
That's when I listen to the one no one should listen to, and get fooled by his disguise.
|
|
Feeling weak from his lies, all of his bad, wicked lies
|
|
If you believe them your faith just dies.
|
|
Don't you get fooled, don't you even open up,
|
|
or expose yourself to just one of his wicked lies.
|
|
|
If you're well read, you probably know how the story goes.
|
|
That wolf can look so good especially dressed in the right clothes, the wooly clothes.
|
|
And as he starts to knit the counterfeit he'll totally make you feel like you're paralyzed.
|
|
He'll keep you spun around and looking down,
|
|
Just when you should be looking straight to the skies.
|
|
Pleading help from his lies, all of the devil's wicked lies.
|
|
If you believe them your faith just dies.
|
|
Don't you be a fool, don't you even open up, or expose yourself,
|
|
To one of his wicked lies, to one of his wicked lies.
