As Christians, our only hope for identifying and avoiding evil is to be completely connected to Christ. The Evil One is always going to appear as a false light in order to entice us. We must be diligent in order to stay pure.

Lyrics
'AN EVIL LURKIN'
VS1
Round the corner and in the cold
In places where the Son don't shine
There's an Evil lurkin' with designs on your soul
And he wants to steal you blind
He's been watchin' you all your life, just waitin' for the time to be right
The stage is set, the battle lines have been drawn
And you don't want to lose this fight
VS2
He's the voice that you hear in the night
Coaxin' you to do wrong
Listen careful to the people you're with
Cause they might be singin' his song
You know there's truth in the saying
That misery loves company
And the Evil One don't wanna go down alone
So he's after you and me
BR
He's a wolf wrapped up in a sheepskin
He's a lion waiting to attack
He will tell you he is your best friend
Then he'll stab you right in the back
(INSTR)
BR (as before)
VS3
So beware i tell you he will never give up
'Til his days are at an end
He's the same cunning devil from the days of old
So don't let him fool you, my friend
TAG
Ooo, yes he is the same Evil One
So don't let him fool you my friend
