Verse 1
The devil laughed and said Iâve won
God has lost his only son
The brightest star no longer shines
Finally this world is mine
Then he gathered all his demons near
He said we have conquered love with fear
Chorus
Meanwhile back at the cross
All is not lost
Forgiveness is bought with each drop of his blood
It falls to the ground
Mercy abounds
As Mother Maryâs tears fall down
To see her precious son pay the cost
Verse 2
The devil said weâll use their pride
Weâll attack them from inside
Fill their hearts with vanity
Til their differences are all theyâll see
Black and white, rich and poor
To justify their holy war
Chorus
Bridge
Take a look around
Turn on the evening news
The devil said thereâs no way
Iâm gonna lose
Hate is everywhere
Love cannot be found
It took me two thousand years
But itâs almost over now
(Chorus)
