Satan is Real
Unveiling the Spiritual Struggle: Satan's Presence in Everyday Life
Lyrics
Satan is real, working in spirit
Satan is a tangible force, actively influencing spiritual matters.
You can see him and hear him in this world every day
Satan's presence is observable and audible in daily worldly activities.
Satan is real, working with power
Satan operates with significant influence and authority.
He can tempt you and lead you astray
Satan has the ability to entice and lead people away from righteousness.
I attended service at a little church
The narrator attended a church service in a rural setting.
In the country not long ago
The event occurred not long ago.
A prayer was led by an old country preacher
An elderly country preacher led a prayer.
Who then raised his hands as everyone stood and sang
During the singing of "My God is real," the congregation stood.
"My God is real"
Reference to a hymn expressing faith in God's existence.
A warm breeze through the open windows
A pleasant breeze carried the scent of newly cut hay.
Brought in the smell of new mown hay in a nearby field
Imagery of the countryside during the prayer.
And the singing of birds could be heard
Birds' singing added to the serene atmosphere.
In the moment of silence
A moment of quiet anticipation as the Bible was opened.
As the preacher opened the bible to read
The preacher began reading from the Bible.
And then a little old man stood up, bent with age
An elderly man spoke up about the reality of Satan.
His hair thin and white
Description of the elderly man's physical appearance.
And said, "Preacher, tell them that satan is real too"
The man urged the preacher to acknowledge Satan's existence.
You can hear him in songs that give praise to idols
Satan's influence is present in songs praising idols and sinful things.
And sinful things of this world
Highlighting the manifestation of Satan in worldly destruction.
You can see him in the destruction of homes torn apart
Emphasizes the reality of Satan through the tearing apart of homes.
I know that satan is real
The speaker has personally experienced Satan's reality.
For once I had a happy home
Reflects on a time when the speaker had a happy home.
I was loved and respected by my family
The speaker was once loved and respected within the family.
I was looked upon as a leader in my community
The speaker held a leadership role in the community.
And then Satan came into my life
Satan entered the speaker's life, leading to negative changes.
I grew selfish and un-neighborly
The speaker became selfish and distant from neighbors.
My friends turned against me
Friends turned against the speaker due to the negative changes.
And finally, my home was broken apart
The speaker's home was eventually broken apart.
My children took their paths into a world of sin
Children took paths into sinful ways after the home's destruction.
Yes preacher, it's sweet to know that God is real
A affirmation of the comfort in the belief that God is real.
And know that in Him all things are possible
A recognition of God's omnipotence and the possibility of miracles.
And we know that Heaven is a real place
A belief in the existence of Heaven where joy is eternal.
Where joy shall never end
Contrasting the positivity of Heaven with a warning about Satan's reality.
But sinner friend, if you're here today
Addressing the listener directly as a "sinner friend."
Satan is real too
Reiterating the message that Satan is real and present.
And hell is a real place
Acknowledging the reality of hell as a place of eternal punishment.
A place of everlasting punishment
Describing hell as a place of everlasting punishment.
Satan is real, working in spirit
Repetition of the assertion that Satan is actively working in the spiritual realm.
You can see him and hear him in this world every day
Reiteration of the idea that Satan's influence is evident in daily life.
Satan is real, working with power
Reaffirmation of Satan's powerful and tempting nature.
He can tempt you and lead you astray
Highlighting Satan's ability to lead individuals astray.
