Devil's Delight

Lack of commitment
Is the Devil’s delight.
For this he is waiting
All day and all night;
To gather the faithful
Unto his breast.
When they’re discouraged,
Then, he is at his best.

He’s constantly watching
For just a small chance.
When allegiance falters
He tries to advance
His purpose by seducing
Loyal Christians who
Have become indifferent
In their daily walk, too.

To avoid this pitfall
We must trust and obey;
Live for our Master
And, constantly pray
For our Father’s guidance
In His work at hand
That we will continue
To live in His plan.

This course of action
Will keep you on track.
It will cause Satan’s scheming
To fall flat on its back.
Renew your commitment
And God will ignite
The spark of conviction
Ending Devil’s delight.
