Lyrics
Father of Lies
Lyrics by Dale Thompson
Music by Gary B Sullivan
I'm past the lust of the flesh, the pride of life
The devils lost interest in me
I cannot be tempted for the things of the world has no interest for me
Seduction waste it’s time for I’ve been set apart
Imperial desires have no place in my heart
Murderer from the beginning, the father of lies
Colorful reflections of wealth and power have no place in my life
My devotion is to the Lord and not to the kingdoms of man and strife
Seduction waste it’s time for I’ve been set apart
Imperial desires have no place in my heart
Murderer from the beginning, father of lies
When the cross of Christ was forced into the ground
it pierced the heart of the slithering snake
On his belly he did crawl
now he is powerless underfoot the earth quakes
Renown thrones topple down religious institutions
become artifacts buried under ground
I will not put my trust in man nor carry his banner in defeat
I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me
Seduction waste it’s time for I’ve been set apart
Imperial desires have no place in my heart
Murderer from the beginning, father of lies
His heads been severed his dominion pulled up by the root
He is not a king he is but darkness for blind fools
When the cross of Christ was forced into the ground
it pierced the heart of the slithering snake
Murderer from the beginning, the father of lies
