There’s an enemy who stalks us
He is full of hate and lies
He is hungry to destroy us
To seize and end our lives
He’s the ruler of the darkness
Waiting for his prey
Son of David drive the evil one away
Deliver us arise arise O God
Deliver us from evil
Deliver us
Arise
Deliver us
He’s a foe who’s full of anger
Speaking doubt and casting fear
His intentions always evil
His motives always clear
He desires to take our freedom
Put on bondages of sin
Jesus Christ we pray deliver us from him
