THE DEVIL - Larry Yates ©1976 At The Gate Publishing
Back before God made the planets, He created things on high
He made every kind of angel... they were beauty to his eye;
Though at first they all were for God, there was one so full of pride...
Lucifer - thought he could reign all on his own and so he tried.
So came the division in the heavens way on high.
Many angels fell with him: the Father of the Lie
There is someone who is working to destroy what God has made,
To cause man to worship idols and to lust for the depraved.
He is subtle, he is clever, and he knows what he’s about.
He will tempt you to your face and he will tempt you round about.
He wants to entice us to walk on in Adam’s way.
Satan was in Eden and he’s here with us today.
Chorus:
We wrestle not against flesh and blood.
We wrestle not against flesh and blood,
But against the rulers of darkness of this world -
Spiritual wickedness on high!
Woe …It’s the Devil.
Bridge:
If you realize that you’re often doing wrong,
Why not stop now to consider who’s been coaxing you along?
If you read the news, you can see who’s in control...
He’s a spirit with a plan that’s made to captivate your soul!
There will come a time upon the earth when Satan’s Man will reign;
With his miracles and prophet, he will try our souls to gain
But if we will stop blaming God for what our sin has brought
And we turn to Jesus, He will save us as his Word has taught.
While one power calls us up, the other bids us fall;
One Way causes us to live; the other …to lose all!

GOD'S WORD - Larry Yates ©1975 At The Gate Publishing ISRC: CADPO1700350
Midnight's coming for the human race;
Escaping our dilemma seems an impossible case.
God in foresight, gave us what we need...
His Book tells of Jesus and how we can be freed.
God's Word has shone through the ages, bringing comfort to the soul.
If we read the Bible's pages, we'll find what we need to make us whole.
Nature tells us 'God is wise and strong and
Our conscience allows us to distinguish right from wrong
More we're shown in the holy Page and
That we have needed God in every age.
Like a constitution, it sets God's highest law
His own contribution to guide us through it all.
All the promises He made are there for us to see
It tells how He has loved us and died for you and me.
So why not find out what it says yourself?
Go buy it at a bookstore or go find it on your shelf,
There's a reason ' you should seek it out...
Read his Word, then you will see what God is all about.

I'm In Love With Jesus Christ - ©1971 AT THE GATE PUBLISHING / SOCAN
ISRC: CADPO1700000
I'm in love with Jesus Christ because he first loved me.
Who else that I know would give his life to set me free?
I thank God for sending down his Son to Calvary.
I'm in love with Jesus Christ because he first loved me.
He came before my Mother's time; I didn't have a name...
But to him, it mattered not, and he came just the same. Now...
He preached...
He died...
He rose.. Now...
I'm in love with Jesus Christ because he first loved me.
Who else that I know would give his life to set me free?
I thank God for sending down his Son to Calvary.
I'm in love with Jesus Christ because he first loved me.

JESUS CHRIST CAN SAVE US - Larry Yates ISRC CADPO1700050
©1971 AT THE GATE PUBLISHING / SOCAN
There's not a sin that we have no share in.
Jesus came down for you.
Good escapes us; we can throw the towel in.
Jesus came down for you.
We need a change and it must come from within
Jesus taught this thing for you
To be reborn, hear his knock and ask him in
Jesus taught this thing for you
He came down as a man
He died for sinners.
He rose to set us free.
There'll come a time when our sins will be as scarlet
But Jesus died just for you
Yes there'll be teeth gnashing; there'll be tearful eyes
But Jesus died just for you.
A Judgement Day or a Book Of Life awaits us
Jesus rose up for you.
We are so deaf! Will salvation still evade us?
Jesus rose up for you!
He came down as a man
He died for sinners
He rose to set us free
Jesus Christ is real!
Jesus Christ can save us!

WE HAVE TURNED FROM GOD - Larry Yates
©1975 AT THE GATE PUBLISHING / SOCAN
ISRC CADPO1700300
Since creation of the world, God's power and diety
We've clearly understood and seen on land in wind and sea.
But, we exchanged the truth of God for our foolish lies
The things He made, we served as gods and
Yet, call ourselves wise!
We have turned from God.
We have turned from God!
So He's given us to sin.
We have turned from God.
Then our women turned from men
To lust for one another
And men forsook God's way with wives and
Mated with their brothers.
Filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness and greed,
We envy hate and kill for gain each other we deceive
Man's a slandering hater of his God;
An insolent, arrogant boaster!
He lacks for love and mercy and
He won't be trusted.
He's a scoundrel and an ego bloater.
Like sheep we have gone astray.
It's happened to us all.
But Jesus took this sin of ours
Upon himself to fall.
God gave his only Son because
He loves us in this way;
By faith in Him, we'll always live and
Can be saved today!
