How much do we believe in forgiveness,
It is a question we each need to ask,
Aren't you tired of feeling condemned?
So then bring that old Devil to task.

We have all committed so many sins,
And done things of which we're ashamed,
But you see sly Satan knows this too,
That's how he tries to keep us framed.

He's just like a prosecuting attorney,
He constantly throws things in our face,
So he'll lie and attempt to deceive us,
Saying in God's Kingdom we have no place.

All our sins are too great he will claim,
God cannot forgive such an one as us,
Don't you dare listen to all of his lies,
Because he will throw you under the bus.

Yes, it's true we've all missed the mark,
But God has certainly not left us alone,
That is why He sent His only Son Jesus,
Who for our sins was willing to atone.

Now in Heaven we have a Defense Attorney,
Our cause is pled before the great Judge,
So when that serpent comes to hound you,
There's really no need for you to budge.

Just hold on tight to our Savior Jesus,
Claiming God's forgiveness thru the Lamb,
And should Satan try to ever condemn you,
Well, just tell that wicked liar to scram.
