Prince of Darkness

Behold the Prince of Darkness In all his glory magnificent The offending antagonist Warring against his father Father of lies, ruler of the powers of the air Behold Lucifer, the morning star Fallen angel, son of light Only mentioned by reference Such malevolent power, yet never appears Opponent of Jehovah, never he appears Such weakness in the dogma By allowing his existence Yahweh claims omnipotence Yet it takes Armageddon to stop him And for a thousand years in a pit he lays Waiting for the final act, an ending never coming
