The father of lies 

Coming to steal 

Kill and destroy 

All my hopes of being good enough 

I hear him saying cursed are the ones 

Who can't abide 

He's right 

Alleluia he's right! 



The devil is preaching 

The song of the redeemed 

That I am cursed and gone astray 

I cannot gain salvation 

Embracing accusation 



Could the father of lies 

Be telling the truth 

Of God to me tonight? 

If the penalty of sin is death 

Then death is mine 

I hear him saying cursed are the ones 

Who can't abide 

He's right 

Alleluia he's right! 



Oh the devil's singing over me 

An age old song 

That I am cursed and gone astray 

Singing the first verse so conveniently 

He's forgotten the refrain 

Jesus saves!
