Don't Be Defeated
I won't be defeated by Satan even though
he uses many things to break me down.
He wants me to be upset all of the time,
never wearing a smile - only a frown.

He is a dictator on this Earth, ruling with a strong hand
but he hates it when a person gets saved.
Each time he lashes out at us through
those he has molded and made.

But I'm not going to be defeated,
nor will you if you have Jesus in your heart.
For then Satan's hands are tied up
and once again you get a new start.

So, come on all of you backsliders and
procrastinators pray to our Lord - it is so nice.
Don't get tricked by Satan, for you are saved
Jesus' life was the price!
