The earth was new, a great frontier | |
A perfect place to spread his fears | |
So Satan set up shop to draw them in | |
Bright lights to display all his wares | |
Come on in, forget your cares | |
That devil knew just how to package sin | |
People came from far and wide | |
Not a guilty soul denied | |
But before they knew they’d been deceived | |
They’d step inside and never leave | |
They said his eyes were black as coal | |
His voice a shudder to the soul | |
He preyed upon the broken and the proud | |
He told them they were lost for good | |
No one loved them; and who would? | |
Before too long he owned that fallen town | |
And from inside the gates they’d wail | |
“Who can save us from this hell?” | |
And as their hopes turned into tears | |
He laughed and all his demons stood and cheered | |
And down the dirt road from the East | |
Came one they said could slay the beast | |
But did not fight with bullets or a sword | |
They called Him ‘Mercy’ and at His side | |
A thousand angels chose to ride | |
And as they moved the ground like thunder roared | |
Stepping down from his white horse | |
With a supernatural force | |
He spoke to his demonic foe: | |
“I’m here to keep the lost; so let them go!” | |
But that great deceiver only grinned | |
As his demons rallied to defend | |
He said, “The price of justice must be paid.” | |
So Mercy rising from his from his seat | |
Showed them all His hands and feet | |
And said, “I am the lamb that was slain” | |
Then the demons and their thief | |
Shook their heads in disbelief | |
And began to writhe upon the ground | |
When they saw He held the keys to their ghost town | |
Then one by one the slaves began to shout | |
And the captives found their way out | |
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: | |
“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!” | |
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: | |
“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!” | |
Then one by one the slaves began to shout | |
And the captives found their way out | |
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: | |
“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!” | |
Mercy broke the chains and they cried out: | |
“Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!” | |
Then one by one the slaves began to shout | |
