Well he's the prince of the world

His work is never complete

(And) Though he promises all

You'll lie a slave at his feet

Don't you know the world is his dominion

Can't you see that you're bound to his chains

The time is short so take your strength in what remains

He will fill up your ears

And he'll dazzle your eyes

But don't believe what he's saying

'Cause he's the father of lies

In your heart, don't you know that he'll betray you

And in the end he will drag you away

Till all the world is crying for the judgement day

And he's fallen, how he's fallen

From the height of the morning star

Though his light's still shining brightly

It's the mask of the great deceiver

Though the truth has walked among us

And the words that He spoke will remain

There's a heartbreakin' blindness upon us

All our efforts to be free are in vain

Without the gift of love

We're lost without the gift of love (We're lost without love)

Well, he never will rest

Until his evil is done

And he don't want you to know

Your freedom's already won

Don't you know the world is his dominion

Can't you see he keeps it in chains

The time is short, so take your strength in what remains

And he's fallen, how he's fallen

From the height of the morning star

Though his light's still shining brightly

It's the mask of the great deceiver
