Before Our Eyes
The danger of the subtle web begins to grip one's soul
As one by one through images the devil meets his goal
Those images of fleshly lust that everyone can see
As everywhere you look these days there's lots of nudity
But seeing what's provided by the media these days
In all the advertisements that collect along one's way
If chosen one can set aside to leave their heart and mind
But those things which are focused on are seldom left behind
But rather start a pathway from one picture to the next
Until that soul is captured as it fails to pass the test
That's found in daily living as temptation tries the soul
And breaks the one who's fallen til the mind's no longer whole
And piece by piece the devil makes them more and more like him
As more and more they want the things that feed the lust of them
Assuming if they're careful no one else will see their sin
Not knowing there's a record where all things are written in
A record where the angels write who serve around God's throne
Where everything on everyone by all the host is known
As in this court of judgement all the worlds our sins can see
And mourn the ones who fall to lust and lose morality
And also lose that one thing that's so vital to the soul
That precious time with Jesus that alone can make us whole
And also makes us more and more like Him as everyday
We choose to be reflective of His light upon our Way
Where in our walk with others who are struggling within
That light can move the darkness til at last all hidden sin
Is cast out as repulsive and what most we want to see
Is daily found in scriptures that contain God's purity
But if we choose to wander on that other path from Him
And give our souls to passions and the evils found in them
Then sooner than we want to think our sin will be made known
And wrath will be that thing we meet for all the seeds we've sown
That made us not the fruitful but the barren among men
That took from us the Kingdom where the saints will gather in
But worst of all will mean the pain Christ suffered on the cross
Will be in vain for choices made that place us with the lost
Deuteronomy 4:24-26; Ecclesiastes 12:13-14; Psalm 101:2-3; Isaiah 1:16-19
