Satan comes as an angel of light With glittering pleasures untold; And many hearts are led astray Far from the peaceful fold He knows our point of weakness Just how to lure us all... Till fellowship with God is broken And we yield to him and fall Watch out for Satan; he's a walking nightmare Beware of Satan; he's a demolition man Be careful before he's gonna come and get you So submit yourselves to God and say "Please release me from temptation and I will be set free" Chorus: When you're caught up in a one-night love affair And you're tempted to make love in the afternoon To an unmarried man, who's not a part of holy family What you need is God To release you from temptation and you will be set free He will never lead you into temptation As long as from wicked enticements you are set free Those pleasures so enticing
Were short lived, as we'd been told; And the angel of light that deceived us Was a lion, fierce and bold Leaving us bruised and bleeding In need of tender care... We cry to our loving Shepherd and find He's always there Watch out for Satan; he's a walking nightmare Beware of Satan; he's a demolition man Be careful before he's gonna come and get you So submit yourselves to God and say "Please release me from temptation and I will be set free" Repeat Chorus Satan is a defeated foe Conquered at the Cross; We need not yield to him at all and suffer such a loss As we walk in fellowship with God From sin He set's us free Giving power over the tempter's call... Resist him, resist the devil, who's a walking a disaster And from your precious love, he will flee Repeat Chorus
