They’re on a path and know not why, attracted by their heart and eye,

A path we would choose to forsake, is one which they chose to take.

Falling prey to the darkened one, who stands opposed to God’s Son,

Seducing believers like you and me, to follow the path of their enemy.



Through the power of his devices, Satan subtly allures and he entices,

Young believers to look and stray, from God’s light to his darker way,

As he seeks to deceive and destroy, a child’s life and the parent’s joy,

Who raised them in Truth and Light, only to fall into the darkened night.



The battle at hand, when implored, through prayer belongs to our Lord,

Though dark the battle seems to be, He’s the One to assure us victory,

The unchanging Lord, full of Grace, will choose the time and the place,

To draw that wayward heart to Him, and lead them from the path of sin.



When concerned parents do their part, to follow God with all their heart,

The final outcome we can be assured, rests with Jesus Christ, our Lord,

Who works in ways we don’t know, to help all His sheep learn and grow.

As the Shepherd leads lost sheep back, in ways that we as parents lack.



We may never know just how or why, our children can fall for Satan’s lie,

But the Truth of God shall overcome, for all Believers, not just for some,

And the Lord, Who changes not at all, will restore children when they fall,

So children He allowed us to raise, will walk with Him, all to God’s praise.
