#89: Bound

"Better to reign in Hell than to serve in Heaven." Satan from John Milton's Paradise Lost.

Satan's sin began with the decision to serve himself instead of God. Satan did not however take power on his own accord, it was allowed to him by God. Satan may have power for a time, but God will reign for eternity.





Bound by my sin and restless within
I’m haunted by nothingness,
Hopelessness and helplessness

Trapped in my cell where sinful men dwell
I’m surrounded by brokenness,
Lifelessness and wretchedness

As darkness is won and my efforts undone
I’m left with my restlessness
Sinfulness and nothingness

Forever lost, forever bound
Chained by my vices, buried in the ground.
