The father of lies
Is 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 is right
Hallelujah, 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 is right
Hallelujah, he's right

The devil is preaching
The song of the redeemed
That I am cursed and gone astray

I cannot gain salvation
Oh the devil's singing over me an age old song
That I am cursed and gone astray
Singing the first verse so conveniently over me
He's forgotten the refrain, Jesus saves
He redeemed me from the curse of the law
