Tentacles of Satan – v2

Life is so full,
of temptations,
leading us, astray
away from the Father,
forgetting the love
of the Son, our Brother,
the healing of the Savior
bringing us home
to our loving Father

So easy to be led astray
to follow the will of the world
to succumb to the many faces
the tentacles of Satan,
the Tempter, leading us
to the darkness, away,
the false gratifications
the things of this earth,
fleeting and failing

None of it eternal
none of them worthy
Not lasting, like
the everlasting love of God
