Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin;
and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned

DECEIVED BY SUBTLE SNARES OF HELL
1.
Deceived by subtle snares of hell,
Adam, our head, our father, fell;
When Satan, in the serpent hid,
Proposed the fruit that God forbid.
2.
Death was the threatening: death began-
To take possession of the man;
His unborn race received the wound,
And heavy curses smote the ground.
3.
But Satan found a worse reward:
Thus saith the vengeance of the LORD:
“Let everlasting hatred be-
Betwixt the woman’s seed and thee.”
4.
“The woman’s seed shall be my Son;
He shall destroy what thou hast done;
Shall break thy head, and only feel-
Thy malice raging at His heel.”
5.
He spake; and bid four thousand years-
Roll on; at length His Son appears;
Angels with joy descend to earth,
And sing the young Redeemer’s birth.
6.
Lo, by the sons of hell He dies;
But as He hung ’twixt earth and skies,
He gave their prince the fatal blow,
And triumphed o’er the powers below.
A blessèd Seventh Day Sabbath to all believers.
In the Son’s Name - For the Father’s glory.
