That Fangless Beast

He’s cunning, that slithery creep
That ferocious beast who seeks to drown you in your sleep
He stalks and stares, looking for ways to take you unawares
He’s cunning, that slithery creep

That fangless beast
His only weapons are lies and deceit
The great illusionist, the biggest cheat
That fangless beast

He’s merciless, that devourer of sheep
Evil’s first-born son, the serpent who claims to be The One
He’ll offer you the world, silver, and gold in exchange for your immortal soul
He’s merciless, that devourer of sheep

That doomed dragon, the crownless king of defeat
Defeated but dangerous still, dragging the ignorant into the fires of Hell
The battle rages on, but the war is won for those who seek salvation in Jesus Christ: God the Son
That doomed dragon, the crownless king of defeat
