Now Satan Comes with Dreadful Roar

Verse 1

Now Satan comes with dreadful roar,
And threatens to destroy;
He worries whom he can’t devour
With a malicious joy.

Verse 2

Ye sons of God, oppose his rage,
Resist, and he’ll be gone;
Thus did our dearest Lord engage
And vanquish him alone.

Verse 3

Now he appears almost divine
Like innocence and love,
But the old serpent lurks within
When he assumes the dove.

Verse 4

Fly from the false deceiver’s tongue,
Ye Sons of Adam, fly;
Our parents found the snare too strong,
Nor should the children try.
