This world is such a hectic place and all because of the human race.
It was started as a paradise but then man’s choice became unwise.
At that time sin had entered man and it truly changed what God began.
And despite man’s perfect start his sin had truly tainted his heart.
Through that one man’s foolish quest all men now face certain death.
What had happened at that tree is Satan’s desire for both you and me.

Pointing beyond their paradise Satan filled their hearts with utter lies.
He conned the woman to believe just enough for her to be deceived.
Deceived into believing such a lie, and without even ask how or why.
Not only did he not deliver, it separated them from paradise forever.
Satan will also fill you with his lies while he works on your demise.
And knowing that his time is short The Word of God he will distort.

He leads men to think they’re wise by coloring truth with tiny lies.
But this is just Satan’s start as he proceeds to darken your heart.
Then as he works to dull your mind so to make you spiritually blind.
Satan uses men that many cherish to lead men down paths to perish.
They perish for they believe a lie that leads them to eternally die.
Through Adam came death and strife but through Christ we have life.

And after man’s fall we’re assured that Satan’s evil will not endure.
Although in Satan’s wicked zeal he shall bruise The Messiah’s heel,
Satan will be eternally dead, as Christ comes back to crush his head,
Then that wicked eternal liar will be cast forever into the Lake of Fire.
On that same bloody cross Christ saved you and I from eternal loss.
By accepting Christ’s Sacrifice, you and I can inherit Eternal Life.

He's coming very soon, the signs are very clear,
And when that trumpet sounds, we’ll be otta here!
Waiting in Him with Great Expectation, Bob Gott
