SABBATH, BLOODY SABBATH

It seems that the devil will get his due,
dancing with glee when he gets to you.
Sabbath, bloody Sabbath, here once more
as he steers people toward death's door.
YES, SABBATH, BLOODY SABBATH!

We have more to fear than goblins who
will knock and run and scare us through
the long night of evil called Halloween.
The real truth come Sunday will be seen.
COME SABBATH, BLOODY SABBATH.

Terror runs rampant on our own city streets,
the devil has a black heart that strongly beats.
Children the prize for the murderer's hand,
Lift off the finger that golden wedding band.
FEAR SABBATH, BLOODY SABBATH!

There are those caught in the devil's grasp
who reap the harvest of an unhappy past.
Guns don't kill people without the real intent
of a madman who pulls the trigger, hell-bent
ON THE SABBATH, BLOODY SABBATH!

An unmarked grave, hidden from our sight
must give the devil incarnate sheer delight.
A knife in your heart will cause him no pain,
the devil is right here and will dance again.
IT IS THE SABBATH, BLOODY SABBATH!

There is only one who can right the wrongs,
to Him we must sing loud the Gospel songs.
JESUS will overcome the devil's own plan
and lift us up out of the evil caused by man.
HE WILL END THE BLOODY SABBATH!
