"There's A Devil On The Loose" lyrics

It's a sign of the times
You can feel it in the air
You can see it on the faces
Of people everywhere
You can hear it on the streets
You can see it on the news
Lord, I do believe
There's a devil on the loose

Boys are running with the guns
Girls having babies too young
Father leave before they're born
Leaving the girl to mourn
Mothers praying, worried, crying
That their baby's out there dying
Lord, there's a devil on the loose
And you know he's lying

Yes there's a devil on the loose
There's a devil going wild
There's a devil on the loose
For every woman and child
There's a devil on the prowl
He's long overdue
And he's working hard for the souls of people
Like me and you

He's turning mothers against daughters
Fathers again sons
Nation against nation
Thrive on the evil that's done
He's a desperate devil
'Cause the Lord's coming back someday
He's got to get his people to deal
He's got to get his people to lie
He's got to get his people to kill
He's got to keep his people high
He's got to get his people together
He's gonna talk 'em into suicide
Any way he get the people dyin'
He's going to devour them like a lion

It's a sign of the times
You can feel it in the air
You can see it on the faces
Of people everywhere
You can see 'em on the streets
You can hear it on the news
Lord, I do believe there's a devil on the loose
Lord, I do believe there's a devil on the loose
Lord, I do believe there's a devil on the loose
