The Beguiling of Woman

George Richards • English

Primary Scripture: Ephesians 5:23

Verse 1

Satan transform'd in guise of light, His snares deceptive spread: Nor dar'd the son of morn, of night, Attack the woman's head.

Verse 2

The weaker vessel soil'd by guile, Soon fell an easy prey, Adam was Eve's, not Satan's spoil, He gave himself away.

Verse 3

Here Jesus' love is plainly shown; Yes! love more strong than death: For not asham'd our guilt to own, The Saviour yields his breath.
