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.
