Analysis of Before It's Too Late
It's not enough to fight each thought
That Satan tries brings along
With all temptations he has brought
To those with faith not strong.
We must replace each negative
Idea when it starts
With ones that are quite positive
Protecting mind and heart.
It also helps to pray about
Your need for help each time.
Don't let the devil cause you doubt;
Sin is an uphill climb!
