Analysis of Enmity
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
Enmity has sent us blind
Truth is hidden
Hard to find
There is
Only
One way
Like lost sheep
All gone astray
Seduced by a subtle foe
Preparing us for a death blow
Defending what is not the truth
Allowing evil to have the say
Brings destruction
If it has
Its way
