Satan Is Real

Satan is real, working in spirit

You can see him and hear him in this world every day

Satan is real, working with power

He can tempt you and lead you astray

I attended service at a little church

In the country not long ago

A prayer was led by an old country preacher

Who then raised his hands as everyone stood and sang

"My God is real"

A warm breeze through the open windows

Brought in the smell of new mown hay in a nearby field

And the singing of birds could be heard

In the moment of silence

As the preacher opened the bible to read

And then a little old man stood up, bent with age

His hair thin and white

And said, "Preacher, tell them that satan is real too"

You can hear him in songs that give praise to idols

And sinful things of this world

You can see him in the destruction of homes torn apart

I know that satan is real

For once I had a happy home

I was loved and respected by my family

I was looked upon as a leader in my community

And then Satan came into my life

I grew selfish and un-neighborly

My friends turned against me

And finally, my home was broken apart

My children took their paths into a world of sin

Yes preacher, it's sweet to know that God is real

And know that in Him all things are possible

And we know that Heaven is a real place

Where joy shall never end

But sinner friend, if you're here today

Satan is real too

And hell is a real place

A place of everlasting punishment

Satan is real, working in spirit

You can see him and hear him in this world every day

Satan is real, working with power

He can tempt you and lead you astray
